My therapy approaches are grounded in somatic interventions, evidence-based practices with a personalized approach to help you achieve your goals. I’m here to provide you with the guidance, tools, and compassionate care you need.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy:

My approach to therapy is rooted in the principles of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which focuses on helping you develop practical skills to manage overwhelming emotions, enhance relationships, and cultivate self-acceptance. I will work collaboratively with you to tailor therapy to your unique needs, integrating various therapeutic techniques and interventions to help you achieve your goals.

Collaborative Approach:

We work alongside you to equip you with tools to get you through winter, embrace spring and every season of life.

I’ll work closely with you to understand your specific concerns and goals, tailoring treatment plans to meet your individual needs and support you every step of the way.

Safe and Confidential:

I prioritize cultivating a non-judgmental space where you can openly share your thoughts and emotions.

My unwavering passion for helping others and interest in psychology has been with me since high school. While learning about myself, I grew a desire to help others understand themselves, and how experiences have shaped them. I found my purpose in being that therapeutic guide for people wanting to grow by shedding outside societal narratives and rewrite them while feeling seen and heard.

As both my professional and personal life continued, I found the niche that would bring me so much joy after becoming a mother myself, to our son-shine. The realities of the effects of the perinatal period on my husband and I, both individually and on our marriage, has led me to create a soft landing place for individuals and couples to weather this big life transition that can often feel isolating.

I look forward to continue to increase awareness of PMADS for both partners, while creating accessible care for communities in need.
