My Story
I believe meaningful therapy begins with the therapeutic relationship. At the core of my work is creating a space where clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported without judgment. While therapeutic approaches and interventions are important, I believe the relationship we build together is one of the most powerful foundations for meaningful change and healing.
My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in the mind-body connection. I am particularly passionate about EMDR and body-based approaches that recognize how our experiences can show up not only in our thoughts, but also in our emotions, relationships, nervous systems, and bodies. I have experience working with couples and individuals across the lifespan, including teens, adults, and seniors, and I am especially passionate about individual therapy through a trauma-focused, neurodivergent-affirming, and culturally attuned lens.
My education in mental health and social justice, alongside my own lived experiences, has deeply shaped who I am as a therapist and Clinical Director. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to inclusive, accessible care that considers the whole person and the cultural, relational, and systemic experiences that influence mental health.
Beyond my clinical work, mentorship and consultation are incredibly meaningful parts of what I do. I am passionate about supporting the clinicians and emerging therapists on my team, as well as providing EMDR consultation as an EMDRIA Approved Consultant in Training. Whether I am supporting clients or fellow therapists, I strive to create spaces rooted in warmth, curiosity, collaboration, and authentic connection.
