I am a mediator, translator, and witness. I can help clients rewrite their narratives, fostering growth and healing. I attend workshops, read, and learn from my clients to stay atop of the latest information and cultural norms. I feel therapy is an art—an improvisational dance where you and your clients co-create meaning. Together we will teach you to hold space for transformation and healing.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In a first session, I would hope to join and teach you how to navigate the therapeutic process. We will go over paperwork, expectations, and your personal goals. Eventually, I hope therapy feels as comfortable as eating pizza in your sweatpants! (I'll do the science in the background).
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have nearly a decade of experience working with all kinds of families and individuals in several states. I have been featured on a national podcast about my own experience and my take on trauma and social justice in the world today. I am very personable and real (despite the screen) so each client leaves knowing that they matter.

VirtualMy treatment methods
EMDR
With just 1-2 sessions at no extra cost, this treatment can really help shake out some self-beliefs that get stuck in our minds as "truth". Ex: "I am unlovable" or "I am unworthy". Shaking up these beliefs can really help us through therapy as we explore new explanations for who we are and what defines us- rather than playing that same 'ol worn out trauma-broken record.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we aim to restructure and reframe your self-identified unhelpful ways of thinking. Sometimes, it can be very difficult to get around a thought that seems to hold you back. With exposure and guided discovery, together, we will find ways to expand those neural connections in your brain- creating new opportunities for your mind to open it's doors and let in ideas that are more helpful to creating the life you love waking up to.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Simply put- this is a business, and you don't want to be in therapy for your whole life, do ya? Every session, I aim to find a take away or some resolution to the problem so that you are increasingly more prepared to leave the treatment room and live life without the metaphorical "training wheels" again.
