Greetings. I am a private practice therapist in Washington State. I am an Independent Clinical Social Worker and I am focused on people's empowerment and connection. I specialize in:
- Inferenced-Based Cognitive Behavior Therapy for OCD.

Psychotherapy provides a safe place to discuss fears, thoughts, and difficult decisions we as humans must make during our journey in life. I believe we are capable of making life changes with the right tools. I am here to listen without judgement. I believe we all have a story to share. Being heard is one of the most important aspects of communication.
My passion is working with clients who have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. By sharing your story, we can begin to process the trauma from experience to a new understanding, while remaining in the present.
Mental health has been a deeply personal passion of mine for most of my life — growing up with a family history of mental health challenges gave me an early understanding of how much the right support can change someone's life. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and I work with many clients who come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, and unsure of where to turn. What sets me apart is that I genuinely listen — not just to what you're saying, but to what's beneath it. Outside of my work, you can find me hiking, spending time at the beach, or getting lost in music, all of which remind me of the importance of balance and restoration, values I bring into my practice every day.
