My Approach to Helping

Struggling with conflict avoidance in important relationships or feeling misunderstood? Looking to unpack and heal from SA or childhood trauma? I enjoy working with motivated emerging adults & adults who are looking for a warm, authentic, and nonjudgmental space for healing. I'm passionate about providing a safe space for people to: investigate what may be holding them back from experiencing a better quality of life, identify and personalize effective coping skills & routines, and practice self-compassion throughout the process.

Feeling misunderstood or judged can hold us back from true healing. As a trauma-informed clinician, I understand the importance of validation and acceptance in allowing us to fully engage in the healing process. My approach is eclectic and individualized, drawing from experience using CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic therapy, NMT, and IPT.

If you're interested to know more or feel we may be a good fit as teammates on your healing journey, please don't hesitate to reach out! I look forward to building a strong therapeutic alliance with you.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

I specialize in trauma therapy and am certified in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) which allows us to explore the impact trauma has had on your development and how it plays a role in the challenges you experience today. My skills also lend well to working with folks on setting boundaries and navigating challenging communication in relationships.

I am a DBT Group leader, as well, and have a group coming up in January 2025. Feel free to contact me for details.
