" I recognize that our clinical world hasn’t always treated everyone with the care, dignity, and understanding they deserve. Many diagnosis and demographics remain disenfranchised, overlooked, or misunderstood. This reality is exactly why I have taken a particular interest in these demographics. Offering informed, evidence-based, and compassionate care rooted in acceptance, open-mindedness, and the wisdom gained from both clinical training and personal experience.

I am an integrative, interactive, and eclectic, psychodynamic therapist who takes a firm Jungian approach to therapy, believing that to truly support a person in their healing, we must be willing to navigate their shadows alongside them. It’s through this deep, sometimes uncomfortable work that genuine growth and light are found.

I am a therapist who isn’t afraid to jump into the hole with you and help pull you out, because I believe you belong on the earth’s surface with everyone else. Your success matters to me, but only if it matters to you too. If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t belong in traditional therapy spaces, you’ll find a different experience with me."
