I truly believe that the challenges I’ve faced—and continue to face—make me a more compassionate, trauma-informed, and attuned therapist. My personal experiences have deepened my empathy, sharpened my intuition, and helped me remain grounded and nonjudgmental in the therapy space. I know what it’s like to sit with anxiety, grief, self-doubt, and big emotions, and that understanding allows me to hold space for others with care, authenticity, and emotional safety. These parts of my journey have taught me the importance of resilience, self-awareness, and healthy boundaries—skills I aim to model and strengthen in our work together. While I’ll never fully know your experience, I bring a real, human presence to therapy, walking alongside you with warmth and curiosity as you navigate healing, self-exploration, and meaningful personal growth.

I wish more people knew that therapy isn’t about being “fixed” or having something “wrong” with you. Therapy is a supportive space just for you—a place where you don’t need to have all the answers to begin. You can show up feeling anxious, overwhelmed, confused, or emotionally stuck and still be met with compassion and curiosity. Just showing up is enough. One of the most important parts of therapy is building trust and emotional safety—feeling safe enough to bring your full self without fear of judgment. Healing often begins in authentic, supportive relationships. As a trauma-informed therapist, I create a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Therapy is collaborative and paced to meet your needs. At its core, therapy is a relationship—and meaningful healing happens when there’s connection, respect, and the freedom to be fully human.

Clients are often surprised to learn that I grew up as a competitive dancer, and movement has always helped me process emotions and feel grounded. That connection to the body still shows up in my life today—whether I’m taking a barre class, walking my dog, or supporting clients in tuning into what their body might be holding. As a trauma-informed therapist with a somatic lens, I believe healing involves both insight and nervous system regulation. I'm a huge proponent of therapy—I value it deeply and engage in my own work regularly. Therapy has supported me through many seasons of growth, and I know firsthand how powerful it can be to feel safe, seen, and supported. I’ve experienced times where my therapist, loved ones, or even my pets helped me through life’s hardest moments, and I understand the healing that can come from safe, consistent relationships—whether human or furry. Outside of therapy, I love traveling, listening to music, and doing low-pressure creative projects. I find that art, movement, and play help me stay regulated and connected to joy—something I often encourage clients to explore in their own lives. I bring that same realness, warmth, and curiosity into the therapy space.

Over the past seven years, I’ve supported individuals and families across the lifespan—from toddlers to older adults—through challenges including trauma, anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation. Early in my work, I provided behavioral therapy to children with autism and supported older adults in medical settings. In community mental health, I worked with children, teens, and adults experiencing complex trauma, severe mental illness, and major life transitions. These early roles gave me a strong foundation in trauma-informed care and taught me how deeply our relationships, environments, and early experiences shape emotional health. In recent years, my focus has shifted toward working with teens, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, high-functioning depression, relationship challenges, and the lasting effects of complex and developmental trauma. I bring an integrative lens to therapy, blending psychodynamic, behavioral, and somatic approaches. I’m currently expanding my training in somatic therapy to better support clients who feel stuck in talk therapy and want to connect with their bodies, process trauma safely, and create meaningful, lasting change.
