As a therapist who specializes in helping adults navigate grief and trauma, I bring deep empathy and a commitment to healing and growth, in collaboration with my clients. My practice is rooted in creating a safe and nurturing space where you can explore and process experiences, past and present. I recognize that healing from grief and trauma is not a straight or simple journey, and I acknowledge the courage it takes for my clients to confront what can be painful. I have eight years of experience, ranging from community mental health to private practice

With compassion, insight, and an understanding of the complexities surrounding grief and trauma, I utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to each individual’s specific needs, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness to help guide, reframe, and offer feedback. I also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a tool for healing and recovery.

Feelings of anxiety, stress, sadness, and loneliness can be difficult to sit with and explore on your own. Oftentimes, you can feel stuck in your mind and too focused on the future. Together, we will identify thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may not be working for you. We will find strategies that will help lead to healthier and more productive ideas and responses, and bring attention to what can be controlled. I will help you to develop a healthy view of yourself, since I believe a healthy view of self can help cultivate change. I will encourage you to prioritize yourself and to view these actions as self-care rather than selfishness. You can confront the difficult emotions that may be impacting you to cultivate a greater understanding of yourself, identify your needs, and reach acceptance of your experiences.
