I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over eight years of experience supporting people through change—especially those who feel the pull to care for everyone else first.

I began my career as a school social worker, where I witnessed how much invisible weight young people—and the adults around them—carry while still showing up every day. In those settings, I saw how patterns like people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-sacrifice often begin early and quietly solidify over time.

That work deepened my understanding of relational and complex trauma: how early attachments, family roles, and experiences of care shape the ways we relate to others and to ourselves long after childhood. It also led me to private practice, where I now work with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, and the process of untangling long-standing patterns that no longer serve them.

am an Internal Family Systems (IFS)–informed therapist who integrates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and attachment-based, relational therapy. Our sessions can be serious or light, often both, because meaningful growth needs room for humor and relief alongside depth. You’ll often hear me say things like “let’s get curious” or “we can do this with discomfort” as we explore your inner world together.

My approach is attachment-focused and socially conscious, recognizing the impact of larger systems on personal wellbeing. Above all, I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and not alone in what you’re carrying.
