Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Santa Rosa, CA

About My Clients

I specialize in working with individuals and couples including neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ clients. I also work with individuals in all life stages and families. I have several years of experience working with survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and childhood abuse/trauma. I specialize in helping couples uncover how unresolved trauma may be impacting your relationship and creating barriers to intimacy. I enjoy helping couples heal together so they can experience connection again.

My Background and Approach

I work with individuals and couples who are experiencing the effects of past trauma and are ready to begin the healing process and move forward. With more than 12 years of experience treating complex trauma (C-PTSD), I bring extensive knowledge and care to this work. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS Level 2). I consider both approaches to be highly effective in addressing and resolving trauma. As a trauma-informed therapist, I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment, moving at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Throughout our work, I offer compassion, guidance and steady support. I believe that you are the expert when it comes to your goals for therapy. I use a strength-based approach that encourages you to access the abilities and resources you have to promote healing. I have experience working with multiple concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, and bipolar disorder.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the importance of understanding and addressing the impact of inequity and intersectionality on mental health and approach my work from this framework. I am committed to working towards racial justice, social justice, and environmental justice in my personal and professional life. I am an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community and believe in the importance of cultural competency and cultural humility in my work. I am involved in social justice groups in my community. I am also an animal lover and believe in the healing power of animals and nature. In my free time, you can find me hiking with my dog or rock climbing outside.
