I am an Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and existential issues. I also work with creative individuals who often feel "stuck." IFS can be particularly helpful for those struggling with complex trauma because it helps clients understand and heal their inner parts that may be stuck in protective or extreme roles. For creative individuals, IFS can help them identify and manage inner parts that may be critical or perfectionistic, thereby fostering a more fulfilling creative process.

As an IFS therapist, I prioritize collaboration and compassion. My goal is to partner with you on your healing journey and create a safe, supportive space for you to navigate your inner world.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to work on their issues. These clients acknowledge their struggles and are willing to invest in positive change. They are open to delving deeper and understand that the process of healing often involves confronting uncomfortable truths and hidden patterns. Furthermore, they welcome vulnerability as a necessary step towards achieving personal growth.
