About My Clients

You're good at masking but inside you feel alone and overwhelmed. Asking for help wasn’t a safe option in the past so now you can’t help but feel like a burden when you need support. And sometimes it feels like your relationships are surface level or one-sided. Please know that you’re not alone! People who experienced chaotic or unstable childhoods often feel this way, and it is possible to heal and live the fulfilling life that you deserve. It may feel out of reach but you can grow the ability

My Background and Approach

I'm a certified trauma therapist (CTP) integrating relational, somatic, and psychodynamic-based interventions in my work to help clients feel calm and more empowered to show up authentically in their daily lives. After working with me clients know what tools and resources are available to them, both internal and external.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that overcoming mental health issues and healing from trauma shouldn't mean accepting that the problem is located inside you. Our sense of who we are and what we're worth is developed in a social, familial, and political context, as well as our sense of what others expect from us and how they respond to us. I believe that for many people, healing means acknowledging the ways that we’ve been harmed by oppressive structures and realizing that we are not what we’ve been told about ourselves. If you want to know more about how I can help, send me a message or visit my website. I look forward to working with you!
