About Me

Therapy helps us learn to uncover strengths and regulate emotions so that life feels more manageable. I utilize training in Brainspotting and Mindful Awareness in Body-Oriented Therapy. Techniques in session support healing through trauma-informed interventions that center on mindful co-regulation, narrative therapy, and internal family systems work.

Mindfulness and somatic therapies can help untangle life's challenges. Using integrative solution-focused relational therapy, I work to assist clients in healing their authentic selves. I believe in the dignity and worth of each person. Processing trauma, and then practicing and developing clear communication strategies, can lead to healthier relationships.
