I am known for having a validating and light-hearted demeanor, combined with a client-centered, empowering, and goal-oriented approach.

I strive to balance meeting people where they are with compassion and acceptance, while also fostering their growth by challenging them to deepen self-understanding and make choices that align with their values.

Therapy with me can entail finding a sense of safety and control, building self-awareness, healing traumas, changing emotional/behavioral patterns, improving self-worth, and ultimately creating a meaningful and fulfilling life.

I specialize in treating PTSD, complex trauma, and borderline personality disorder. I frequently work with individuals dealing with unresolved trauma, intense emotions, relational conflict, self-harm, shame, dissociation, anxiety, and depression.

While I do not accept insurance directly, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

I have 5 years of formal training in clinical psychology in addition to a yearlong trauma-focused residency at SSM Health St. Agnes Hospital. I am also trained in EMDR through Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP).
