We are living in challenging times. If you are struggling, it means you are human. Know that asking for help is a strength. My therapy is collaborative, client-centered, strength-based with a commitment to anti-oppression. I work from an attachment perspective that is emotionally focused. As a family therapist, I believe your family of origin influences the dynamics in your relationships and patterns of behavior. I believe connection is important in your healing. Thus, I work to create a safe therapeutic environment where growth can flourish. I bring my full self to my work – my optimism, my directness, my persistence, my humor.

I enjoy collaborating with individuals and couples, especially those who identify as Black, Indigenous, POC or apart of the LGBTQ+ community, to access their innate healing power, reclaim ancestral knowledge, and achieve their vision of wellness. I practice with the beliefs that everyone is the expert of their own story, and have the power to heal themselves under the right circumstances. I provide support to those ready to process and work through past trauma, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, spirituality, identity struggles, multicultural experiences, and building connection and intimacy.

My style is warm and I occasionally attempt humor. I know from personal experience that it can take courage to enter into conversations about change and I greatly respect the people I work with. In addition to a general practice, common topics I work with include: sex therapy, gender identity, cultivating satisfying relationships, life transitions, anti-oppression, stress, anger, grief, polyamory, shame, hope, acceptance, and integrity. I also counsel and consult on recovery from experiences of undue influence, coercion and exploitation, such as those common with con-artists and groups with cult-like features.

I believe each of us has an innate capacity to grow, change, adapt and heal. But that doesn’t mean you have to know how to do it on your own! I work with people experiencing significant life transitions including serious medical diagnoses, the impacts of structural oppression, traumatic stress, anxiety and depression. My approach is compassionate and collaborative and my work is focused on partnering with clients to build internal and external support for the dynamic and ongoing process of recovery, integration, and coping with loss and change.

The therapeutic relationship should empower an individual to regain ownership of their life, shifting negative self-talk and other impacts of trauma; allowing for holistic healing and growth. It is my hope to actively walk alongside my client as they work to create their peace; ultimately gaining an improvement in positive self-awareness and optimism, with a side of lasting security and emotional health.

These days it seems everyone is dealing with trauma and overwhelming distress - whether childhood, complex, combat, generational, or just keeping up with the jones's, it is making our society sicker everyday as we forget how to care for one another and are forced into solitary corners of suffering. Those with the strongest natural supports and biological defenses will thrive, but more and more those natural supports and defenses are weakening, even for the most successful as the illness becomes pervasive.

In therapy, I prioritize creating a space where clients can embrace the breadth of human emotions with compassion and respect. I view clients as the experts of their own lives and strive to foster a non-judgmental atmosphere that encourages genuine expression and creativity. My focus lies in supporting individuals and couples who are grappling with PTSD, mood disorders, anxiety, parenting challenges, and relationship issues. As a family systems therapist, I explore how external systems (such as culture and family of origin) impact us, alongside our internal attachment patterns and meaning making processes.

My approach to therapy is very client focused. I am a systemic therapist and will try and look at the whole picture of your life to help figure out how to help. Working with couples to save, restore, or provide maintenance is my passion. There’s nothing in the world quite like trauma and the way it impacts us as individuals on many different levels. I can help you deal with and navigate these painful memories and intrusive thoughts to live a healthier life. If you are a parent struggling with a child or family problems, I believe I can connect with and help teach both parent and child to help you be a more successful family unit.
