I believe lasting healing happens when three things come together: understanding the origins of your beliefs, patterns, and triggers; learning to regulate your nervous system through somatic awareness; and developing the personal agency to interrupt old patterns, set boundaries, practice self-compassion, and create meaningful change. As your therapist, my role is to balance validating your experience with gently challenging beliefs that no longer serve you. I strive to create a safe, collaborative space where you can process your experiences, develop practical skills, and build lasting change.

​

I use a trauma-informed approach drawing from Somatic Experiencing, DBT, and ACT with a strong emphasis on nervous system regulation. I work with adults navigating chronic pain, burnout, attachment wounds, religious trauma, and Ethical Non-Monogamy. I do my best work with people who are committed to their well-being, willing to stay curious, and ready to explore themselves with honesty and self-compassion.

​

For over 18 years, I worked in physical rehabilitation supporting individuals with chronic pain. My own experience with traumatic injury and chronic pain inspired me to earn my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, allowing me to integrate holistic physical wellness with emotional healing through a trauma-informed lens.

​

Outside the office: Global travel is my lifelong devotion—I love immersing myself in local architecture, food, and culture wherever I go. Locally, you can usually find me paddleboarding, hiking, or strength training.
