About Me
For as long as I can remember, I was described as an empathic individual. I have always deeply cared for, felt, embraced other individual experiences and emotions, and remained curious about the human experience. Alongside my empathy, I cared and enjoyed giving, helping others, and holding space for those around me. As I grew older, I experienced difficult trauma that disrupted family dynamics and forced me to gain awareness of my own symptoms of anxiety, depression, and navigating relationships/ attachment. As my life changed around me, the one thing that remained constant was my empathy, love to help others, and passion to pursue my education in psychology. Looking inward and doing difficult healing has fueled my passion and highlighted the importance of healing trauma, inner child work, healing attachment wounds, and strengthening parent-child relationships. Through my own therapeutic experience, I gained a further understanding of how difficult it can be to start therapy, begin your healing journey, and begin to invest in yourself. I want to ensure that every individual feels safe and supported throughout his or her therapeutic process. My approach and space is judgment-free to assist individuals in being the best versions of themselves, no matter what they have endured.
My prior experience consisted of working with children, teens, and families in an acute psychiatric setting facilitating group therapy that focused on anxiety, depression, self harm, self-esteem, and emotional regulation. I am trained in EMDR, CBT, DBT, Parent Child Relationship Therapy, and Play-Based Therapy and strongly believe in the use of multiple therapeutic modalities to best fit the needs and treatment goals of each individual. I am passionate about being able to provide individuals with the tools they need to meet their therapeutic goals.
