It’s understandable and normal to need help working through life's challenges. I specialize in working with women and emerging adults struggling with past or current trauma, relationship and/or family conflict, life transitions, anxiety, and depression. I believe women and young adults face unique challenges in life. My goal is to offer support and compassion in hopes of helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself. I believe that through this understanding comes healing, growth, and an ability to identify and express your emotions. I want to help you find confidence, peace, and self-compassion. I begin the therapeutic process by focusing on establishing trust and rapport. I use trauma informed and strength's based approaches to help you process your experiences, and identify and express your emotions. I primarily draw from Family Systems Therapy, Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness approaches. I approach my work with curiosity, humility, and humor (sometimes we just need to laugh a little). I believe you are the expert in your own life. My goal is to create a nonjudgmental space so you feel safe and empowered to express your thoughts and feelings. I view therapy as a collaborative approach, where we can work together to identify areas of healing.
