About Me
It was my own experience with therapy, and the changes I observed in myself, that led me to pursue a career as a therapist. I feel incredibly privileged to continue that learning and growth in tandem with my clients. I see the therapy relationship as providing the safety and consistency necessary for clients to feel free to show up as their true and full selves. To that end, I make it my priority to establish strong trusting relationships using a warm, transparent, and collaborative approach.
My practice is rooted in culturally responsive relational, psychodynamic, and attachment-based perspectives, which incorporates cognitive-behavioral and emotion-focused interventions as well. I help clients develop greater insight, self-understanding, and self-compassion by exploring the way they relate to themselves, their emotions, and others.
My Specialties
I specialize in addressing a wide range of relationship and emotion-related issues including depression, anxiety, grief, and particularly trauma (childhood, sexual, race-based, combat, and other). I have experience working with adults of all ages, including LGBTQ+ populations, clients from varied racial, ethnic, and cultural identities, as well as current and former military. I’m also engaged in advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy.
