(she/her)
I was a CPS Social Worker before I was a therapist. Both of my degrees are in Social Work. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and hold licenses in California, Washington, and Oregon. I am very responsive, and your story matters to me. I have been practicing for 7 years. I assist clients ages 12 and older who are struggling with their mental health.
I have a laid back approach. My first session involves learning more about what your needs are, providing information about how I work, and then assigning homework so we can begin to address the issues you want to work on.
Having worked with families struggling with mental health issues, and often in crisis, I have gained a strong insight into the dynamics that impact families and create longlasting negative issues.
I love working with individuals who are ready to change the negative patterns in their lives and who are ready to put in the work needed to understand the mental health struggles that brought them int therapy. I enjoy helping indivduals process trauma and heal.
Other specialties
I identify as
Trauma Informed Care
Prior to becoming a therapist, I was a social worker for 27 years, and have worked in the field of social services for over 31 years. I have experience working with adult survivors of child abuse, child neglect, domestic violence, commercial exploitation, and rape. Over the last three years, most of my therapeutic services have been provided to those dealing with CPTSD and/or PTSD, alhtough I am open to individuals suffering any mental health issues.
Transpersonal
In my practice, I encourage your spiritual/religious connections. Additionally, I encourage Earthing and other mindfulness techniques to assist with emotional disregulation and to help with your overall healing.
Eclectic
Journaling assignments, journaling shadow work, and journaling of dreams/nightmares are utilized to further insight into your issues and their cause, which helps to promote healing and stop unhealthy patterns of behavior.

She was incredible and very detail oriented with trying to help find solutions to various struggles with my mental health and family. It feels amazing to finally find the right therapist that really made me feel heard.

I felt uncomfortable and comfortable. And the biggest of all I felt herd. She told me her diagnosis, It was relieving. I repeated a bad habit after the session. But, I ate veggies after my bad habit of over eating. I go for sweets when I push myself. The visious cycle was deeper than I thought. I felt wrong for saying anything. My dreams was vivid and deep from the session.
