I work with couples, individuals, and teens who are interested in developing a greater relationship with themselves and their loved ones. As a trauma-informed therapist, I use a directive, compassionate approach to help you process traumatic events, attachment wounds, and interpersonal conflict. I specialize in working with ADHD, anxiety, depression, addiction, and other trauma-related conditions. Using warmth and humor, I offer tangible communication, cognitive, and nervous system regulation skills that you can use to feel empowered in your daily life.
I am an EMDR-trained therapist and incorporate other modalities such as somatic therapy, DBT, Nonviolent Communication (NVC), and Internal Family Systems.
Using my background in international social work, I utilize my experience and a critical multicultural lens to support clients of diverse backgrounds. I value naming systems of power and acknowledging how greater socio-cultural structures may impact identity and relationships.
