About Me
Utilizing a trauma informed lens in practice allows for you to approach what you're doing through with more compassion and less shame. I take a direct and compassionate approach to allow for a dialogue, feedback, and movement in session. I'm here if you want to dig deep, and get to the root of the issues to create changes. I've been in practice for over 18 years, and specialize in adults, adolescents, and couples. I've worked in psychiatrist hospital programs and private practice. This allows me to assess different levels of care when necessary, and provide ample coping skills to manage. I strive to provide a collaborative experience, so you feel you are getting what you need most out of therapy.
