"There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn't"

However you stumbled across my profile today, I’m really glad you’re here! Life can feel so heavy sometimes and you shouldn’t have to carry it alone. I am passionate about walking alongside folks looking to heal from trauma, improve self-esteem and build healthier relationships with themselves and their loved ones. I have significant experience working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, as well as individuals battling addiction and substance abuse. I also worked extensively with moms navigating a number of perinatal issues (pre and post-partum anxiety/depression, infertility, new parenthood etc.)
I aim to create a safe environment for you to process current stressors and heal from past pain. This may include aspects of CBT, person-centered therapy, EMDR, motivational interviewing and other trauma-informed approaches. Creativity, authenticity and laughter are essential parts of this collaborative experience.
I believe we are all beautifully unique and each person deserves a customized approach to therapy. I take a humanistic and strengths-based approach which means I will meet you exactly where you’re at and aim to create safe and non-judgmental space for you to heal.
