Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist specializing in trauma recovery, resilience, and fostering connection. I focus on addressing high-functioning anxiety, life transitions, and complex trauma within a safe, respectful, and empowering environment. My person-centered, collaborative approach ensures your therapy goals remain the priority, and I deeply value the strength and courage it takes to seek support and embrace growth.

With over 20 years of experience in social work, I specialize in trauma recovery, child abuse and neglect, acute crisis psychotherapy, and school-based therapy. I work with children, adolescents, and adults on issues like attachment, emotional regulation, anxiety, and navigating high-stress environments. My therapeutic approach integrates Attachment, Resilience, and Developmental theories, utilizing techniques such as Accelerated Resolution Therapy, CBT, Parts Work, Family Systems Therapy, and DBT. Grounded in trauma-informed care, I emphasize fostering communication, empathy, and understanding within families while addressing the lasting impacts of developmental trauma and adverse childhood experiences.

Outside of work, I cherish time spent with my family and friends, especially cheering on my kids at sporting events. I have a deep love for the outdoors, particularly camping and gardening. I also believe in holistic well-being, focusing on the interplay between the body, environmental factors, and mental health to help you feel your best—always with a nonjudgmental approach.
