I have been provided therapy services since 2021. I was trained in EMDR in 2024 and have been practicing since then. I have worked with individuals of all ages, but prefer to work with ages 14 and up.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who helps clients heal from trauma, reclaim self-trust, and create relationships rooted in consent, curiosity, and compassion. My work is grounded in EMDR, trauma-informed care, and systemic therapy. I also specialize in working with queer, trans, and polyamorous communities, helping clients explore identity, navigate complex relationships, and find safety in authenticity.
I approach therapy as a collaborative and affirming process—one where we slow down, notice what’s happening in your body, and make sense of your story without shame. My clinical background includes extensive training in dissociation, attachment, and complex trauma, as well as experience supporting survivors of narcissistic and relational abuse.
My goal is to offer a grounded, compassionate space for clients to rediscover their capacity for healing and wholeness.
