(She/Her)
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps adults heal from anxiety, generational, developmental, and attachment trauma. My work integrates inner child healing, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care to support clients in understanding how their past influences their present. Together, we focus on building healthier relationships, setting boundaries without guilt, and cultivating greater clarity and self-trust. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in both deep exploration and practical tools for meaningful, lasting change.
In our first session, you can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where we begin building trust at your pace. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, the challenges you’re currently facing, and aspects of your background, including meaningful relationships and past experiences. We’ll also explore your goals and what healing looks like for you. There’s no pressure to share anything before you’re ready—my priority is helping you feel safe, seen, and supported as we begin this work together.
As a provider, my greatest strengths are my ability to listen deeply and create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions and experiences. I bring a strong understanding of how early trauma shapes present-day patterns, which allows me to tailor interventions that support meaningful healing. I integrate a range of approaches-including inner child work, psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and somatic techniques—so care can be responsive to each client’s unique needs. My work centers on self-growth and empowerment rather than blame, helping clients reframe limiting beliefs and build more authentic, healthy relationships with themselves and others.
I’m best positioned to support adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, self-doubt, people-pleasing, or fear of conflict—especially those who grew up feeling emotionally unsupported or who carry unresolved childhood wounds. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but struggle internally with shame, hyper-independence, or difficulty trusting others. I work especially well with individuals who are ready to explore their inner world, understand their patterns, and begin the deep work of healing from attachment trauma and generational pain.
Trauma Informed Care
I use a trauma-informed approach that prioritizes emotional safety, trust, and empowerment. I help clients heal by integrating inner child work, attachment theory, and somatic tools to gently process trauma without re-triggering, while honoring their pace and resilience.
Psychodynamic
I use a psychodynamic approach to help clients explore how early experiences and unconscious patterns influence their current thoughts, emotions, and relationships. This insight-based work supports lasting change by bringing awareness to what’s beneath the surface.
Attachment-based
I use an attachment-based approach to help clients understand how early relationships shape their sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. In therapy, we explore attachment patterns and work toward building healthier, more secure connections—both with others and within themselves.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients make space for difficult emotions, reduce avoidance, and reconnect with their core values. Through mindfulness, acceptance, and committed action, clients learn to move forward with more clarity, self-compassion, and purpose—even when life feels uncertain or overwhelming.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts, shift reactive behaviors, and develop healthier coping strategies. By understanding the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions, clients gain practical tools to manage anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm in their daily lives.
