About

As a therapist with 12 years of experience, I work with people experiencing anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, shame, intergenerational trauma, body focused repetitive behaviors. I especially love to work with first generation professionals and other helping professionals (especially other therapists!) . I value humor, compassion, shared humanity, and committed action toward change. I work to continuously learn and improve through professional learning and my own personal healing. Together we will explore your unique values, utilize mindfulness &somatic practice in session, and set action oriented goals that move you toward your values.

I offer a directive, compassionate, holistic style that helps you make values-based choices utilizing a mix of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic therapy (Trauma Resiliency Model), mindfulness-based practices, and exposure and response prevention (ERP) . A therapy session consists of mix of skills practice and meaning making through exploration.

If you feel we would be a good fit, please send me an EMAIL with your availability and whether you will be using insurance or self paying. I only offer telehealth.
