My Approach

I meet clients where they are, at whatever pace makes sense for them. I take the therapeutic relationship seriously and bring genuine curiosity and warmth to every session. I believe in a truly collaborative process for supporting clients.

Who I Work With

I'm particularly drawn to adults navigating the effects of trauma, those who feel stuck or overwhelmed, and individuals from communities that have historically faced barriers to accessing quality mental health care.

My Values

My clinical work is guided by the NASW Code of Ethics and a commitment to social justice, equity, and the dignity of every person. I believe therapy is most effective when it's collaborative.

CLINICAL APPROACH

How I Work

My practice is grounded in trauma-informed care and cultural humility, meaning I pay attention not just to what a client is experiencing, but to the larger context shaping that experience.

I draw on motivational interviewing, DBT skills, and cognitive-behavioral frameworks, adapting my approach based on what each person actually needs rather than following a single script.

I work with adults navigating

  • Trauma and PTSD

  • Anxiety and depression

  • Life transitions

  • Severe psychiatric conditions

  • First-time therapy

  • Barriers to accessing care

Community Context

I have experience working within community mental health systems and deeply understand the structural factors that shape people's lives and wellbeing. That context never leaves the room.
