About My Clients

I have extensive experience providing behavioral health services to teenagers, adults, and elders. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed approach when working with a wide range of clients and their concerns, including depression, anxiety and mood disorders, grief, eating disorders, trauma and PTSD, religious trauma, dissociative disorders, chronic illness, and life transitions.

My Background and Approach

My approach is rooted in meeting clients where they are, offering a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to explore and heal. I use an integrated, trauma-informed approach of Person-Centered, Psychodynamic, DBT, Internal Family Systems, and Somatic Therapy to tailor each session to the unique needs and goals of every client. I specialize in IFS internal parts work, helping you to understand and heal the various parts of yourself, release unresolved trauma, and create a sense of inner harmony and self-acceptance. I also, specialize in the Mind-Body connection, helping you to reconnect with your body, release stored trauma, reprogram neural pathways, and cultivate emotional resilience, leading to greater self-awareness, healing, and overall well-being.
