There is a reason why the safety protocols on airplanes instruct us to put the oxygen mask on ourselves first in case of an emergency. We can not care for others if we don’t focus on our own needs, even with the very limited time most of us have daily. Yet many of us get stuck on a hamster wheel and end up giving and giving until we simply have nothing left. This in conjunction with trauma can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. My goal is to disrupt that cycle by providing a safe space for my clients to work through their most vulnerable emotions and emerge ready to tackle life’s challenges.

Whether you're seeking support for depression, anxiety, grief, traumas, or just the everyday overwhelm of life, there's a vital role in connecting how white supremacy and oppressive systems impact you as an individual and as a part of the collective.
You're not too much. You deserve to take up space and have your needs met. Maybe you've learned to disconnect from your feelings and disregard your own needs filling everyone's cup but your own. You're left feeling empty, without energy or motivation to heal and fight for change. You want to make intentional changes that bring more joy, ease, and meaning but don't know where to start. You don't need to do this alone. Let's integrate your healing journey with anti-oppressive & anti-racist practices. We'll use creativity, curiosity, & connection to weave together your story, heal from trauma, & break cycles of oppression. You matter.

I gained my clinical counseling experience working in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient levels of care treating individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, labile moods, trauma/PTSD, relationships, dual diagnosis, behavioral addictions, self harm, suicidality, emotional eating, and more.

My approach includes mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), compassion based therapy, and trauma informed care to help those seeking long or short term therapy.

My specialities include working with people experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions such as career change and relocation, relationship issues, navigating dating, women's health issues including infertility and sexual dysfunction, grief/loss, and family conflict.
I believe that therapy is an experience that can help process emotions and increase self-awareness. It helps find patterns in behaviors from the past and present and provides you with the knowledge and encouragement to become the best version of yourself. I strive to ensure that you feel supported, validated, and at ease. My approach is LGBTQIA+-affirming, anti-oppressive and anti-racist. My clients would describe me as warm, honest, and genuine.

We see the world through the filter of our beliefs. These beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world influence our interpretations of the experiences we have. They exert power over our emotions and behaviors. Sometimes our beliefs cause dysfunction in our lives, causing depression, anxiety, or low self-worth. They can dampen motivation, inhibit our behavior, and disrupt our relationships. Inaccurate, dysfunctional beliefs can trap us in a self-fulfilling prophecy, as when, for instance, a belief that we are incompetent causes us to avoid new opportunities, resulting in outcomes that make us feel even more incompetent.

Offering in-person and virtual sessions! I come with a curiosity about attachment and early stages of development. My treatment approach is to help restore connection to yourself and your relationships through psychodynamic and trauma-informed therapies. Many people share how their negative beliefs and emotional discomfort can “feel stuck” in their mind and nervous system. I work with clients to resolve present day problems and longstanding patterns in their lives (anxiety, phobias, PTSD, Depression and so on.) through the integration of mind, body and brain processing techniques.
