What it’s like to work with me

My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion and connection. Throughout my years in practice I have worked with many clients struggling with the daily impacts of trauma and anxiety. Many of these people have thought that this is what life is like for them, and there is no opportunity for change. It has been one of the greatest privileges of my life to sit with these people as they begin to unpack what has been causing them so much distress, and truly process it so they can begin living life on their own terms. I truly believe that with the right support healing is possible for all of us.

Many of our struggles develop within the context of our life experiences and relationships. Meaningful change often occurs when we feel safe enough to explore the impact of these. It is my hope to create an environment where people can begin to feel “comfortably uncomfortable” leaning into these experiences. I believe that when we do this we can begin to heal from what is holding us back, and learn to live life in a way that feels genuine and fulfilling to us.

Born in Bend, Oregon and raised in North Carolina, I have developed a deep love and appreciation for our outdoor spaces. Outside of the office you will find me enjoying any of our beautiful lakes, snowboarding, or spending time with my 2 rambunctious dogs.
