Introduction

I believe that understanding your story, how you became who you are, is where real healing begins. I work with young adults (15+) and adults navigating complex trauma, PTSD, grief, anxiety, depression, substance use and recovery, late-diagnosed ADHD and autism, and major life transitions. My approach is grounded in curiosity and compassion, drawing on trauma-focused, strength-based, and person-centered methods tailored to who you are. I integrate various therapeutic modalities because healing isn't one-size-fits-all. I'm committed to culturally sensitive, feminist, and attachment-aware practice that honors your neurodivergence and unique needs. I offer both telehealth and in-person sessions and accept a wide range of insurance plans. I'm currently accepting new clients and would be honored to support you as you move forward.
