About My Clients

I specialize in working with individuals managing challenges with trauma, anxiety, and life transitions, with a particular passion for empowering women and folx in the LGBTQIA+ community. However overwhelmed by your thoughts, feelings, or past you may be, I provide a space of non-judgment, honesty, and compassion. My goal is to support and collaborate with you in finding a greater sense of balance and well-being.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified EMDR clinician with a history of community mental health work treating adults from all experiences. My approach to therapy is responsive to the needs of each client, drawing from eclectic blend of modalities such as EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT).
