About…

Welcome. I’m a mental health therapist offering a unique, holistic path to well-being. My practice is deeply rooted in my own healing journey, my professional background as a social worker, and the transformative principles of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. In our work, I create a compassionate space for you to explore your inner world. Guided by IFS, we’ll gently connect with your inner “parts”—even those in shadowy places or seeking comfortable shade. My role is to help you understand them, listen to their stories, and invite your inherent Self—your core of wisdom, compassion, and courage—to lead with clarity and peace.
  
What sets my approach apart is my social work perspective. While exploring your internal landscape, I also help you understand how your experiences, relationships, community, and broader societal factors shape your inner world. This “person-in-environment” lens means we address more than symptoms; we explore your life’s full context for meaningful healing.

I believe in your innate capacity for healing and growth. My commitment is to walk alongside you with empathy, non-judgment, and professional insight, supporting your journey toward a more aligned and fulfilling life. Seeking counseling takes courage and vulnerability. It’s a significant step toward prioritizing your well-being, and I’m here to honor that.
