About

Are you looking for deep, meaningful work that builds self-awareness, emotional clarity, and sustainable coping so you can navigate life with more ease and authenticity? Therapy can feel like a leap into the unknown, but it can also be a deeply meaningful and even joyful process. I offer warmth, curiosity, and respect for your inner wisdom as we explore the patterns shaping your relationships, identity, and sense of self. Healing isn’t about fixing what’s ‘broken,’ but about making space for your experiences so you can move forward with more ease and resilience. My approach is relational and trauma-informed, honoring your whole self—including the parts that feel dismissed or “too much.” I draw from ACT, IFS, DBT, and somatic therapies, supporting teens, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, identity, trauma recovery, burnout, and family challenges. Coming to each session as not only a therapist but, first and foremost, as myself, I am intentional about incorporating creativity, compassion, humor, genuine connection, and vulnerability. If you’d like to explore working together, I encourage you to reach out for a free consultation. Specialties: With a career steeped in commitment to individuals and families in vulnerable situations, I foster strong community connections, goal articulation, and personal empowerment. When working with me, you can expect a non-judgmental and collaborative space where your identity and strengths are celebrated. Credentials & Experience: I am a social worker with over a decade of empathic stewardship experience. I approach my work with a deep understanding of anti-oppressive principles and intersectional practices that support both individual and collective identities.

"Evidence show that the biggest predictor of successful therapy is not so much the therapeutic approached used, but the client-therapist relationship. While I draw from different modalities, including CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness therapies, the most thing to me is to approach each session with compassionate curiosity. I want you to feel safe, heard, understood, and supported."
