​

How would you describe your therapeutic style in three words? 

• Trauma-Informed: My clinical concentration in graduate school was in trauma.

• Empowerment-based: I believe clients are the experts in their life and I'm here just to guide and support them on their trauma recovery journey.

• Interactive: It's not all doom and gloom in trauma therapy. I enjoy getting to know my clients and sharing a laugh with them whether it's a funny story that happened over their week or their "dark humor."

​

What do you hope clients will take away from their experience working with you?

I hope my clients get symptom reduction and feel heard and understood in therapy.

What is your favorite ice cream flavor or dessert?

Chocolate chip mint ice cream.
