While faith is often a deeply empowering space for people, it can also be a space of harm, abuse, and shame for others. The confusing and disorienting experience of spiritual or religious trauma can leave us feeling lost, hopeless, alone and untethered in life. I am deeply passionate about helping people navigate difficult faith transitions, deconstruction, faith questioning and religious trauma to resolve the lasting impact that relgions can have on our relationships, self-concept, and worldview. Together we can process through your experiences, implementing a uniquely tailored therapeutic approach to help you process the long term impacts of religious trauma. We can untangle the ways in which relgious trauma influences your worldview and ability to connect, and we can work together to help you create an authentic and personal standard of ethics  that embodies your core beliefs and values. 

Nuerodivergence and ADHD have been receiving widespread attention recently, which has helped many people, myself included, feel seen and validated in their nuanced experiences. If you suspect that you may be coping with ADHD it can be a daunting and enlightening experience. Neurodivergence is a spectrum of nuanced symptoms and often manifests alongside other symptoms and diagnoses including anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic illness, chronic pain, mobility concerns, autoimmune disorders, and hormonal challenges (particularly in women) that compound the impact it can have on your functioning. Together we can explore your unique experiences to identify the strengths and the challenges you face with your symptoms. From there, we can develop effective systems and strategies to help you navigate a neurotypical world that was not built in your favor to empower you to thrive. 

I am of the belief that the relationships we encounter throughout life have transformative impacts on who we are. Unfortunately, try as we migh, it can be difficult to really connect with those we love. I want our work to empower you and your partner(s) to transform even the most painful conflicts into a space of team work and understanding so that you can find your way back to the connection and love that you crave. Relationships often force us to confront challenges with communication, boundaries, conflict resolution, chronic conflicts, jealousy, and even infidelity. I want to help you and your partner(s) cut through the noise and learn how hear each other again. 

Alternatively, if you and your partner(s) are hoping to develop healthy relationship skills to prepare for marriage, life transitions, future, or family planning opportunities, I am happy to walk with your on your journey of laying the foundation for the future you dream of. Oftentimes, people wait until their relationship is on the brink of implosion to come to therapy. Doing the work before the relationship begins to suffer can be the difference between "For Now" and "Forever." Let's work together to develop the tools necessary to help your relationship stand the test of time. 

My approach is inclusive of all relationship systems including monogamous, polyamorous, interracial, interfaith, non-traditional, LGBTQIA2S+ relationships, and is kink affirming and sex-positive. I am able to incorporate emotionally focused therapy techniques, attachment-based perspectives, somatic work, EMDR, and sex therapy informed techniques to help my clients reclaim the connections they are yearning for. 

Family conflict can be devastating to navigate alone. Oftentimes, the people who claim to love us most, leave the deepest scars. I work with adult clients who are estranged from their family members to create a space to process through the painful experiences that have led to the disconnection to find healing and hope. I also facilitate relationship therapy among estranged family members if their goal is to reconnect after estrangement or chronic conflict to help improve their ability to understand and empathize with each other. I aim to help clients explore the impacts of their conflict and estrangement on their functioning as well as develop key relationship skills to help them find connections that feel fulfilling and authentic through the cultivation of friendships, community, romantic relationships and ultimately within themselves. Together, we will also offer a space to allow the voices of you inner child and inner teen to feel heard, seen and validated so that you can live a more self-led life.

Living under systems of oppression can take a profound toll on the mind and body. The chronic stress of navigating racism, classism, sexism, queerphobia, and other forms of systemic harm can lead to nervous system dysregulation, PTSD/C-PTSD, and deep emotional exhaustion. Whether you're carrying the weight of intergenerational trauma, struggling with the isolation that often comes with being marginalized, or simply trying to exist in a world that wasn’t built for your full expression, I see you. Your pain is real, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

In our work together, we will explore how systemic oppression has shaped your nervous system, your self-perception, and your relationships. Using a blend of trauma-informed approaches—including Polyvagal Theory, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and Brainspotting—I help clients process the wounds of oppression in a way that honors both the mind and body. Healing is not about "fixing" you; it’s about creating space for your truth, reclaiming your sense of safety, and reconnecting with your inherent worth. You deserve support that acknowledges both the personal and systemic layers of your experience, and I am here to walk alongside you in that journey.

My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by both personal and professional experiences that allow me to offer deep insight and support in a range of complex challenges. As a former professional athlete and Team USA synchronized skater, I understand the immense pressure that comes with high-level performance. The weight of expectations, the fear of failure, and the toll it takes on the nervous system are real—and navigating performance anxiety requires more than just mental toughness. Through trauma-informed approaches like Polyvagal Theory and Somatic Experiencing, I help athletes and high achievers regulate their nervous systems, build resilience, and reconnect with the joy of their craft.

Beyond the world of athletics, my work has taken me into spaces where survival is the priority—supporting survivors of domestic violence, individuals experiencing homelessness, and those impacted by substance use and incarceration. Through my experiences in a domestic violence shelter and working with system-involved populations, I have witnessed firsthand the intersections of trauma, systemic oppression, and resilience. Whether you are processing the wounds of abuse, navigating the cycles of addiction, or reclaiming your life after incarceration, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for healing. Using EMDR, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing, we will work together to process trauma, restore a sense of agency, and create a path forward that honors your lived experience.
