I believe one of the bravest things you can do is to understand your own story. In therapy with me I prioritize our therapeutic alliance, while we work on your goals, as I understand how vulnerable and unique the therapy relationship is. I do this by using a warm and empathetic approach and honoring that trust gets built slowly over time. I also try to bring in humor when appropriate and further allow my clients to feel like an equal partner in their treatment. I know there is no one size fits all to therapy and I want to make sure you and your unique needs are at the forefront of our work together.
I specialize in working with adult women and young adults as they work through managing perfectionism, anxiety symptoms, and complicated relationship dynamics. I utilize a trauma informed lens in my practice and pull from Attachment Based modalities, Acceptance and Commitment based strategies, and Narrative Therapy to help my clients redefine their trauma.
I’ve worked in a variety of settings over the past seven years while in the mental health field including psychiatric hospitals, ICUs in medical hospitals, providing family therapy, and group therapy. The role I enjoy the most is working one on one and creating meaningful connections. If we sound like a good fit feel free to reach out to set up an intro call

I pull from several different modalities in my work and try to utilize what might be the best fit for each individual and the challenges they are facing. I also like to hear about what has or hasn't worked for you in the past and adjust accordingly as everyone's needs/preferences can look so different. This is why I value open communication and collaboration throughout our work
