My Story
My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing upon a variety of evidence-based modalities to best suit each individuals needs. I believe in a holistic approach that addresses the mind, body, and emotions. Key modalities I utilize include Somatic Therapy, recognizing the deep connection between our bodies and our emotional experiences. I also incorporate Internal Family Systems (Parts Work), which views the self as a system of interconnected parts, each with its own unique perspectives and intentions. Additionally, I utilize Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT),
emphasizing mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. I work with adults (18+) of all genders, addressing a wide range of issues, including depression and anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, work life balance, relationship issues, low self-esteem, stress management, perfectionism, and burnout.

Passions, Interests + Inspirations
My passions include the thrill of skydiving, the simple pleasure of enjoying a good cup of coffee, the exhilaration of snow tubing, and the unconditional love of my dogs. I deeply enjoy the outdoors, whether it's hiking through scenic trails or
simply spending time in nature, especially at the beach with warm weather. I'm also a curious person and enjoy learning new things and exploring different aspects of the world around me. I find fulfillment in connecting with friends and family.
