I believe healing happens in relationship. When we've been hurt in connection with others, it makes sense that we'd find our way forward through genuine, attuned connection. As a social worker, I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment wounds, and relationship challenges. I use a non-pathological approach, meaning I'm interested in understanding your experience without labeling it as broken or disordered. My toolkit includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which allows us to process trauma and difficult experiences at a deeper level than talk therapy alone often reaches. I also draw on relational and somatic approaches to help you reconnect with yourself and others. I offer telehealth sessions and accept Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross of California, Carelon Behavioral Health, Providence Health Plan, Optum, and UnitedHealthcare.
