About Me

Seeking therapy takes courage; people often feel vulnerable when reaching out for help. I believe the therapy process is a collaboration, and you are the expert on your lived experience. Together we can create a space that honors your values and beliefs and helps you live fully in the present moment, manage painful emotions and symptoms, develop self-compassion, and build more genuine relationships so that you can not only survive, but thrive. I am a trauma-informed therapist, trained in many different theories to work with individuals, couples, families, and teens living with different mental health symptoms, oppression, and interpersonal and familial difficulties. Together we can find strategies to alleviate symptoms and emotional pain, so that you thrive, not just survive. I believe in a secure, compassionate, and honest relationship, we can feel brave enough to feel, think, and talk about some of the hardest and must vulnerable things in our life. Creating this environment creates opportunity to translate changes made inside the space we create, to changes in spaces that exist and are created outside of therapy.
