I am passionate about helping individuals understand how their past experiences influence their present sense of self, relationships, and mental health. I find the greatest meaning in helping clients heal from developmental and attachment trauma, while recognizing how symptoms such as anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and relationship difficulties often have roots in earlier life experiences.

I also enjoy supporting individuals living with chronic illness and medical trauma. Having lived with a chronic health condition since childhood, I understand the unique emotional challenges that can accompany ongoing health concerns. This lived experience, alongside my clinical training, allows me to approach this work with empathy, curiosity, and a deep appreciation for the connection between physical and emotional wellbeing.

I have a nurturing and supportive approach to therapy. I believe that effective trauma informed therapy requires thoughtful conceptualization and mindful pacing to ensure clients feel safe throughout the healing process.

I have over nine years of clinical experience and have been practicing EMDR since 2019. I became an EMDR Certified Therapist through the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA) in 2021. I have also completed Level 1 and Level 2 Brainspotting training and continue to pursue advanced education to provide the highest quality care to my clients.

Outside of the therapy room, I love spending time with family and friends, reading, weightlifting, and finding meaning in everyday experiences. I describe myself as a realistic optimist who believes that everyone is capable of healing.
