Guiding You to Healing: Down-to-Earth Support for Complex Trauma, Mood, and Anxiety Concerns
I work with teens and young adults on processing traumatic experiences, regulating emotions, navigating sensitive nervous systems, and strengthening relationships through laughter, creativity, art, and play. I use a mix of evidence-based + trauma-informed therapy techniques based on the presenting concerns. I incorporate components of play therapy, art therapy, DBT, and TF-CBT to treat those who have dealt with traumas, life adjustments, LGBTQIA+ concerns, eating disorders, suicidal thoughts/self-harm, depression, and anxiety. I use a down-to-earth approach to therapy, because (let's face it) this process can feel scary at first. It’s important for me that I create safety in both our relationship and the therapy room - which means radical acceptance and excitement for your most authentic self and experiences.
