I’m here to create a safe space for you to explore your life and the things you’d like to change within it. I’m a musician, mom, wife, feminist, and geek and each of these identities helps me connect with my clients on a deep and authentic level. I’m trained in DBT, CBT and EMDR, and use techniques from music, gaming and geek therapies.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

We’ll work together to create the perfect mix of approaches that resonate with you and use them as needed to make sure you always feel seen, heard and supported. I meet you where you are and always keep it real—I can’t wait to work with you.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I’m a firm believer that the things we love help us appreciate the world in a different and more meaningful way. Art and music, manga, anime, video games—all the things that make you “you”—can be incorporated into our sessions to help get to those breakthrough and “a-ha” moments.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I’m here to create a safe space for you to explore your life and the things you’d like to change within it. If you’re in a moment of transition, experiencing burnout, or looking for hard skills and approaches to better move through a world that isn’t super supportive—we should work together.

My treatment methods

EMDR

I am EMDR basic trained. I utilize this treatment method in order to treat trauma. This is a treatment method that can be utilized with children, adolescents, and adults.

Feminist

This treatment method is the foundation of my practice. I value an egalitarian relationship between myself and the client amd want to empower the client to improve their quality of life by helping them accomplish their goals in treatment.

Trauma Informed Care

Having a trauma informed approach is imperative when it comes to treating clients. Everyone has experienced some form of trauma.
