I take an eclectic and collaborative approach because I believe every person’s story, strengths, and path toward healing are unique. You are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you, helping you discover the approaches that best support your goals. I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is one of the most powerful agents of change. When people feel genuinely seen, accepted, and emotionally safe, healing has the opportunity to take root. My hope is to create that kind of space for every person who sits across from me. I am experienced in and pull from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness and grounding, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and strengths base and solution focused therapies.

I am trained in Brainspotting, a somatic, brain-body approach to trauma healing. Brainspotting helps access and process experiences that may be stored deeper within the nervous system and can be especially beneficial for trauma, anxiety, dissociation, and other experiences that can feel difficult to fully resolve through words alone. I offer Brainspotting as an additional pathway for clients seeking deeper mind-body and trauma healing.

More about me: I am a mother, gardener, soap maker, and natural living enthusiast. Nature has always been my place of restoration, reminding me that healing, resilience, and growth often happen gradually—just as they do in the natural world.

As someone who is also a trauma survivor, I understand that healing is rarely a straight line. While every person’s journey is different, I know how lonely, exhausting, and overwhelming it can feel at times. I also know that healing is possible. Although the path isn’t always easy, there is hope, peace, and wholeness waiting on the other side. Wherever you find yourself today, I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you begin taking those first steps forward.
