For more than ten years I’ve had the privilege of supporting teens, parents, and young adults as they navigate life’s challenges.I am passionate about supporting families in building strong connection & communication patterns as they move through phases of adolescence and independence, and in helping my adult clients connect with a version of themselves that feels safe and grounded. My approach to therapy is warm, open, and honest. I want you to feel truly welcomed when you walk into therapy, like you have a place where you can speak freely, be heard, and feel understood. I offer gentle, but direct guidance to help you explore what you’d like to be different and how we can work together to move toward those changes. I am neurodivergent affirming and believe that our differences are our strengths, not our weaknesses.
My hope is that you leave our time together feeling safer, more grounded, and more empowered to navigate your relationships and the ever-changing world around you. Using a combination of Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, CBT & DBT, I want therapy to be a space where you feel supported exactly as you are, while also encouraged to grow into who you’re becoming.
I am also a board-appointed supervisor in both Washington and Texas, and I love offering supervision to associate clinicians who are looking for a nurturing, growth-focused space to develop their clinical voice and confidence.
