About me

You have found the voice of an online therapist inspired by the swells of the Pacific Ocean! I not only have a personal love of ocean culture but also a special interest in increasing our power by creating meaning and healing through finding balance and connection with ourself, others, and our surroundings. I specialize in trauma-focused interventions.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The first session is an opportunity to see if we are a right fit. You are the consumer, you have options! It is important to feel seen and heard, while also holding each other accountable to honoring the therapeutic alliance and process.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have experience with the challenges that come with understanding depression and anxiety, family issues, career changes, interpersonal relationships, sex and intimacy, grief and loss support, and addiction and substance use treatment affecting individuals and their loved ones.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have worked with all ages and genders throughout my career yet due to limitations of telehealth I prefer teen youth and adults that are comfortable with navigating the technological landscape. In addition, we all have our own personalities and experiences, so finding a right fit can feel challenging. We will work well together for as long as we have both done the work!

She's nice and funny, able to be uplifting during session and talk things out thoroughly. She has good advice and helps me stay on track.
