Relationships are an important and crucial part of our world. Having relationships that work for us can improve our mental health and increase our feelings of self-esteem and self-worth. I love being an MFT because I get to be part of the change that people want in their relationships and life. Often when someone comes to therapy, they are dealing with some of the most difficult things that they have experienced. Being a part of an individual's, families', or couple’s journey towards a better them is something that I cherish and feel honor in.
Originally, I decided to go into this work after experiencing many people in my own life unable to successfully navigate their own mental health issues. These issues were often relational and systemic in nature and is the reason why I chose marriage and family therapy as a discipline. I have often found that when our relationships are in a great place, we are often more able to take on difficult life circumstances with more confidence. In a day I could work with individuals, families, couples, friends, and co-workers.
​I have worked with individuals, couples, and families for 7+ years. Additionally, I am trauma-informed Certified EMDR Therapist/Consultant and specialize in treating PTSD and C-PTSD, CSA, and ASA.
