My Approach to Helping

As a therapist, I specialize in working with trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and identity/self-esteem (LGBTQIA + friendly). Based on your needs, I utilize/offer EMDR, IFS/parts work, somatic therapies, mindfulness practices, narrative therapy, art therapy practices and creative approaches, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and more. I utilize evidence-based practices that are trauma-informed, strength-based, social justice/multiculturally informed, neurobiologically informed, and tailored to your unique goals. At the core of all that we would do in therapy is YOU: your strengths, your interests, and your needs! All parts of you are welcome. Together we will work together to build a life you hope for, and deserve.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have a PhD in counseling with almost a decade of clinical experience, M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and serve as an Expert Blog Author for Psychology Today (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/lifting-the-veil-trauma). I specialize in trauma/complex trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, identity/self-esteem, & womxn's mental health (w/ years of experience w/ personality disorders, addiction, neurodiversity, etc.). I am loudly queer friendly and involved in social justice work in my life for all marginalized persons/identities. In working with me, my hope is to support you in finding the well-being and integrated life you are striving for. Note: I also have an interest of working with therapists and first responders. If you are a helper who seeks to work with someone who understands what it feels like to hold the trauma of others, I would be happy to talk with you to see if I can support you in you journey.
