Welcome
Psychotherapy is an opportunity to enhance your learning about your goals, behaviors, attachments, and discover who you truly are. Whether you are seeking support for life stressors, to cope with a recent loss, to manage a mental health diagnosis, or to strengthen a challenging relationship, my goal is to collaborate with you in a warm, supportive, and skilled manner. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities that are tailored to each client's needs, goals, and personalities. I primarily utilize insight-oriented therapy, Values-Based Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Interpersonal Therapy. I often weave in elements of DBT and CBT. My goal is to help you navigate the complexities of relationships and attachments, explore and harness elements of your personality, and identify themes and patterns that take away from the richness of your life. My main goal is to assist you along the way as you develop and create emotional well-being that has a lasting positive impact on your quality of life.
About Me.
"Whatever happens to you belongs to you. Make it yours. Feed it to yourself even if it feels impossible to swallow. Let it nurture you, because it will"- Cheryl Strayed
It is truly an honor to sit with clients and learn their stories, offering non-judgmental space and compassion to grow and explore. I find my work as a therapist to be incredibly meaningful, important, and fulfilling.
I began my social work career in 2004, and have worked in a variety of settings both in California and Michigan, including inpatient hospitals, outpatient clinics, and both large and smaller therapy practices.

"I knew that if I allowed fear to overtake me, my journey was doomed. Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we tell ourselves, and so I chose to tell myself a different story from the one [we] are told. I decided I was safe.
I was strong.
I was brave. Nothing could vanquish me.
