About Me
I have always been interested in people's stories, how we perceive things, what drives our decisions, and what we do. As a therapist, I have curiosity about you and there is no judgment about your past, your experiences, or your feelings. I have experience in outpatient therapy clinics as well as experience working in more intensive settings with people living with severe mental illnesses. My therapeutic foundation is in trauma and attachment theory, where we look at relationships and experiences and how they may affect you today. I am also a YTT 200-hour certified yoga instructor, which informs my work by examining your somatic experiences and integrating mindfulness.
