My Background

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (#106303) and have been working in the mental health field since 2014.

I have always been empathetic by nature, but my own journey toward healing in my own therapy is what drew me to becoming a therapist.

It has been my mission to help clients find balance, strength, and resiliency. If I had to define my approach, I’d say that I am eclectic with an emphasis on mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure response prevention (ERP), and solution-focused therapy. I am an active participant in the therapeutic space and believe that the work that is done outside of therapy is just as important as the work done in session.

Outside of the work that I do, I also enjoy playing endless amounts of ball with my dog, exercising, meditating, line dancing, cooking, reading, listening to music, wathing film and TV, and spending time with people that I care about the most.

My Style

• I provide a shame-free environment where warmth, empathy, and humor are encouraged.

• I do not practice with a, “one size fits all,” approach, as I believe all people, relationships, and families are one of a kind and deserve the best fit for their needs.

• Sex Positive/Kink Allied

• LGBTQIA+ Affirming

• Adoption informed for both individuals who were adopted and those who have/are considering adopting a child.
