Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and families from many different walks of life—in community clinics, schools, foster care programs, and social service agencies. Early in my career, I supported children on the autism spectrum and individuals with developmental disabilities through behavior-based and family-centered care, which taught me patience, flexibility, and the importance of meeting each person where they are. Drawing on evidence-based approaches, including my training in the Triple P (Positive Parenting Program), I help parents build confidence, connection, and effective strategies for nurturing their children. I’ve also worked with foster youth and families, as well as survivors of trauma, domestic violence, and human trafficking. These experiences have deepened my understanding of resilience, healing, and the power of safe, supportive relationships—insights that continue to shape the way I practice today.

My therapeutic approach is informed by evidence-based practices that are tailored to each individual’s needs. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients manage difficult emotions and develop healthy coping strategies. For processing trauma, I integrate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed therapy, and psychodynamic therapy to help address the root causes of emotional pain and create lasting change.

I believe in the power of collaboration and create a compassionate space where we can work together to uncover your inner strength and resilience. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or the complexities of motherhood, my goal is to help you heal and move forward with confidence and clarity.

Taking the first step toward therapy can be challenging, but I’m here to walk with you every step of the way, offering guidance rooted in both professional expertise and lived experience. My mission is to provide a safe, supportive environment where you can begin your journey of healing and self-discovery.
