About Me
My Approach
My approach to therapy is deeply person-centered, compassionate, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and empowered as we work together toward your goals. I also specialize in evidence-based trauma therapies, including EMDR, CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) and DBT, to support meaningful healing and lasting change.
​
What to Expect
You can expect a warm, welcoming and nonjudgmental environment where you feel truly heard and supported. Together, we'll work at a pace that feels right for you, building on your strengths while navigating life's challenges with compassion and care.
​
What I Want You to Know About Therapy
You are not alone, and you don't have to stay stuck. Healing is possible, and therapy offers a space to explore, grow and move forward. I believe true healing happens when we care for the whole person, mind, body and spirit.
​
A Little About Me
Outside of the office, my favorite role is being a mom to my son. I love watching him grow and learn, and that same appreciation for growth inspires my work as a therapist. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, gardening and making memories with family and friends.
​
Why I Love This Work
One of the greatest privileges of being a therapist is witnessing the incredible growth and healing that can happen throughout the therapeutic journey. I feel honored to walk alongside my clients as they discover their resilience, overcome challenges, and create meaningful change in their lives.
