I am a Licensed Clinical Social Work Supervisor and 5th year postgraduate Psychoanalytic Scholar with the Dallas Psychoanalytic Center. I have a passion for helping others find deep, lasting change as opposed to mere symptom relief.

I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ identities and those impacted by trauma. I had the privilege of launching the first PTSD Intensive Outpatient Program for U.S. military in Korea, treating sexual, childhood, and combat-related trauma, and this experience, combined with my analytic background, largely informs my approach to care.
