About My Clients

Are you struggling with anxiety, past trauma, or depression? Has stress become overwhelming? Do you have, or suspect you may have, ADHD and want some helping managing the impact on your life? Strengths-based, person-centered, trauma-informed therapy may be for you!

My Background and Approach

I've been in the field of mental health since 2009 and a licensed therapist since 2013. I take a trauma-informed feminist perspective while using evidence-based approaches such as EFT (emotion-focused therapy), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), and attachment based therapy.

I believe that everyone deserves compassion, respect, and accountability.
