Who I am...

As a therapist certified in grief and trauma therapy, I provide a compassionate, integrative space for healing. My work is grounded in EMDR, Trauma-Focused Mindfulness, and Polyvagal Theory, allowing us to explore your experiences with both depth and gentleness.
I use a person-in-environment approach, meaning I seek to understand you within the many contexts of your life- your relationships, community, culture, and environment. Together, we will explore how these layers shape your emotions, patterns, and sense of self.
Both as a grief and trauma therapist and clinical social worker, I've had the privilege of supporting individuals and families through some of life's most profound challenges and transitions. My background spans pediatric hospice, maternal and child health, perinatal loss, and reproductive grief, alongside private practice work with widows, bereaved children, and clients healing from childhood trauma and other significant losses. These experiences shape how I show up with clients- with presence, care, and deep respect for the strength it takes to face life's hardest moments.
