As someone who values genuineness, compassion, and transparency, I aim to create a space where clients can be vulnerable and authentically themselves. I feel healing occurs when clients feel seen, supported, and validated. You can expect curiosity, passion, and informality to show up in my approach. I believe in meeting each client at where they're at in their journey. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, relational issues, and communication problems. My work supports those who have experienced traumatic events, have a hard time finding their voice in relationships, or are struggling with life transitions.

I focus my approach on being collaborative, warm, and validating with each client’s goals. My approach incorporates EMDR and somatic techniques, which are body-focused to help create a mind and body connection. I also use IFS/parts work in my approach. Parts work helps us understand and accept the various parts of us to help unburden their extreme roles. This may look like exploring different parts of yourself to help build self-trust and cohesiveness within.

A little about my background, I obtained my MA from Webster University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2022. I am EMDR trained and utilize both parts work and somatic practices into my approach. Some (kind of) fun facts about me, I have a BIG German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix and black cat, love to read, and enjoy being outdoors!
