Clinical Profile & Philosophy
I believe that meaningful therapy progress begins with a person’s readiness to change. We will explore different areas of your life that you’d like to see change and start with the most approachable one. My patients describe me as open-minded, positive, welcoming, and relatable. I always enjoy laughing together and want to create a safe and comfortable environment.
My goal is to help clients feel more connected to themselves and to support them in navigating distress so they can rediscover their own beauty. I am a Person-Centered therapist and will often use analogy to describe narratives, emotions, and relational dynamics. I resonate with a Trauma-Informed Narrative Approach paired with skills work from both Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy frameworks. I also enjoy working with other modalities like parts work, art, writing, and play.
I work with adults and teens ages 12 and up. My specialty areas include mood disorders, BPD, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, body image, disordered eating, childhood trauma and neglect, identity formation, interpersonal relationships, religious deconstruction, and LGBTQIA+.
