hello!

A young woman with shoulder-length brown hair, blue eyes, and earrings, smiling outdoors with a blurred green background, wearing a cream-colored knit cardigan with buttons.

I specialize in supporting womxn and non-binary femmes navigating anxiety, depression, complex PTSD, ADHD, and the lasting impact of trauma. Many of my clients have experienced family conflict, narcissistic or emotionally immature parents, childhood sexual abuse, or struggles with body image and disordered eating.

My approach is holistic and person-centered, meaning I see you as a whole person—mind, body, and spirit—while also honoring how culture, oppression, and systemic forces shape your lived experience. I draw from EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, and Art Therapy, weaving them together to support your healing in ways that feel safe and authentic to you.

As a feminist and anti-racist therapist, I hold space that is compassionate, empowering, and inclusive of all your intersecting identities. My role is to walk alongside you with care and curiosity as you reclaim your voice, build resilience, and move toward healing and wholeness.

The console has decorative objects on top, including a undulating white candle holder with two lit candles, a large pink salt rock, a smaller white salt rock, and a piece of driftwood. To the right of the console is a large potted plant with broad green leaves.

who is my ideal client?

My ideal clients are womxn and non-binary femmes navigating the challenges of anxiety, depression, complex PTSD, or ADHD. Many carry the weight of family conflict, narcissistic or emotionally immature parents, childhood sexual abuse, or relational trauma that still echoes in their daily lives. I also hold space for those moving through disordered eating, body image concerns, or body dysmorphia—understanding how deeply these struggles are woven with trauma, systemic pressures, and cultural messages about worth. My approach is holistic and rooted in feminist, anti-racist values, which means I honor the whole of who you are—mind, body, and spirit—while also recognizing how culture and systems of oppression shape your healing journey.
