About My Clients
I help folx who are exhausted from masking anxiety, depression and loneliness. People who are ready for a deeper understanding of how past experiences continue to impact their life. Are you searching for effective strategies and support in your journey towards healing? Tired of saying, "I'm fine" when you're not? Reach out today. Let's get started.
My Background and Approach
My approach is trauma-informed. I treat all types of trauma (stemming from family of origin, other relationships, physical/medical, or workplace/school, etc). I specialize in complex trauma - pervasive & typically spanning childhood. Clients describe me as warm warm and friendly. I love to laugh! At the same time, I am skilled and serious af about the work we do together. I draw from evidence-based treatment models such as EMDR, TF-CBT, and DBT as well somatic techniques. I lean into cultural humility and pair that with unrelenting curiosity. I want to know everything about you - your music, movies, games, books, food-- anything that brings you joy. I believe that accessing joy is a key component to mental wellness. Together, we'll identify the source of your pain and find ways to help you heal so that you can feel and function better. Often that looks like improved relationships, a calm mind, relaxed body, and a clearer vision about what you want to accomplish moving forward.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Access to quality mental health care is a passion, particularly for geographically isolated and marginalized communities - BIPOC & LGBTQ+. I dedicated years to addressing childhood trauma by pioneering school-based mental health treatment programs in rural school districts.
