I am dynamic, intuitive, intellectual, and passionate. I demonstrate cultural sensitivity by acknowledging differences and intersecting identities.

I treasure the relationship building process. I search for what is distinctive and precious within every individual’s lived experience. My clients feel empowered and whole by unearthing their own unique histories, perspectives, and capabilities.

If you have a desire to reflect on how childhood experiences have influenced how you relate to the world, or if you prefer to keep our work together in the "here and now," we will create a client-centered and empathy-focused healing space.

I enjoy helping clients reflect on relationship patterns that have led to a less confident core sense of self. Identities of unworthiness, expectations of failure, demands for perfect performance, and ongoing acute shame are common.

I became a therapist to help others understand avoiding feelings or memories only got in the way of moving towards a rich and meaningful life.

I'm a member of the Resilience Lab — the largest community of clinicians working collaboratively to produce better outcomes and improve mental health.

My training in psychodynamic theory and practice with experiential elements, brings creativity and play into my work. I have experience co-facilitating a multi-family Full Protocol DBT skills group that offered intensive DBT therapy to adolescents.
