I believe that we are capable of healing and growth when we are given space to be seen, heard, and fully accepted. I hope that through our work together, you will find the freedom to live your life bravely and embrace who you are.

A question that guides my approach to therapy is: “How do your past experiences, trauma, and heartache impact your life today?” The answer to that question is an invitation to heal past wounds and find more peace in the present.

My areas of focus include clients who have experienced attachment trauma, religious trauma, body image distress, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, faith transitions, and meaning-making in later life. I work with children (11+), adolescents, young adults, older adults, and the LGBTQIA+ population.

I believe that connecting with our bodies is a vital part of mental wellness and healing and am trained in EMDR and Brainspotting to further facilitate trauma recovery. I also love inviting clients to utilize art and creativity in their healing journeys. I work from an Intuitive Eating and Health At Every Size lens when supporting clients in exploring their relationship with food and their bodies.

I value the uniqueness of each individual and am grateful for the opportunity to work with people of all backgrounds, beliefs, and sexual and gender identities.



When I’m not in the office I love spending time with friends and with my sweet (and crazy) pup named Frankie.
