Support and care in an authentic setting

Life can be unpredictable, challenging, and scary. Unfortunately tragedy, grief, and hardships can cause significant pain, but I believe each of us possess the skills and resources to heal. I can work with you to recognize and tap into your own inner resources to move through life's challenges and find meaning.

About

Healing through Authenticity, Growth through Change.

I specialize in trauma-informed psychotherapy, including IFS-informed and EMDR approaches, for adults navigating complex relational and developmental trauma. I have significant experience in variety of settings, including inpatient, outpatient, community-based, and employer-sponsored programs. I have an authentic, strength-based approach and will work collaboratively with you. I view the therapist as a guide/partner in your individual process and growth. I have further training in perinatal mental health treatment, internal family systems therapy, grief/loss support, EMDR, and dialectical behavioral therapy. Using an integrative approach, we will work together to foster personal growth. Everybody deserves a safe and supportive environment to heal. Please reach out if you would like to speak more about working together.
