Under Clinical Supervision

Please, note: A clinician listed as being “clinically supervised” is completing clinical hours toward their licensure. They have one or more fully licensed clinical supervisors that often have special training. They consult with their supervisor(s) on all of their cases.

In what ways have your personal experiences influenced your work with your clients?

My own lived experiences deeply shape the way I work with clients. I've personally engaged in or extensively studied every therapy modality I use in our sessions. I've spent years reflecting on all the layers of my own childhood and beyond, and I continue to learn, grow, and evolve. Like you, I’m human and have faced many of the same anxieties, life transitions, relationship dynamics, and existential questions that come with being alive. What connects us as humans is not just our joys but also our shared struggles. That connection allows me to approach our time together with genuine compassion and understanding. Your unique experience is entirely your own and deeply important, and I’m here to hold space for it with care and respect.

Education

George Mason University, Bachelor of Arts, Communication

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Communication from George Mason University, where I gained a strong foundation in understanding human connection and interaction. I was also part of a nationally competitive sports program, which deepened my knowledge about perseverance, teamwork, and dedication—qualities that have a significant impact on my work with my clients.

Bastyr University, Master of Arts, Counseling Psychology, 2024

I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Bastyr University, a school known for its focus on holistic health and wellness. My time there helped me develop an integrative approach to mental health, combining evidence-based practices with a deep respect for the mind-body connection, which shapes how I support my clients today.

Work History

Before becoming a therapist, I had a variety of experiences that shaped how I support my clients. I worked in communication and development in both the corporate and nonprofit worlds, where I learned so much about understanding people’s unique perspectives and challenges. Later, I spent time as a stay-at-home mom to my two kids, an experience that taught me the importance of resilience, connection, and the everyday ways we show up for the people we care about. My journey as a therapist started at the Bastyr Center for Natural Health and later with a private therapy collective, where I worked with clients from all walks of life. Now, in my private practice, I bring everything I’ve learned along the way to create a space where you can feel supported and explore what matters most to you.
