About My Clients

I use a warm, direct, and eclectic approach with a cultural-relational focus, meaning, I like to pull from various therapeutic methods to meet your own unique needs. I am particularly drawn to supporting young adults navigating identity, relationships, and life transitions, as well as those experiencing grief and loss or perinatal mental health issues.

My Background and Approach

Regardless of how you are hoping to grow or heal, my style is process driven and rooted in self-guided meaning making. I take a culturally-attuned and trauma-informed approach, and view therapy as a space to cultivate healing, connection, and change. One in which we can better outfit you with the skills and perspectives you need most for the journey you are on. With compassion, curiosity, and a little humor, we will explore existing patterns, coping methods, and relationships in your life. We will honor your emotions and past experiences and gently challenge that which is no longer serving you. A few styles that guide my work are Attachment, Parts Work, Emotions-Focused, and Cognitive-Behavioral. My ultimate hope is that our work together will allow you to both feel safe showing up just as you are, and support you in finding growth as your most authentic and free self. Reach out for a free consultation! I look forward to connecting with you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am LGBTQIA+ identified and affirming, an advocate for HAES, and committed to anti-racism work including continual exploration of my own biases. As a mental health practitioner I believe deeply in the power of collective care, and that the truest path to healing lies in communal collaboration and connection. In therapy, I will encourage you to find joy and purpose outside of work or school and my life looks no different! In my free time my spirits are high when I’m curled up with a good story, lost in deep conversation with loved ones, traveling to new sites, or scrambling up rock faces and through alpine meadows. You might also find me practicing creativity through cooking & DIY projects, or snuggling with my beloved pup.
