Licensed Psychologist

I am a mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and therapist, and I bring all aspects of myself and my experience to my work. I feel deeply privileged to do the work that I do—to be invited into someone’s inner world, to witness their personal story, and to companion them through the challenges they are facing. I offer a supportive and grounding space to slow down, turn inward, and understand yourself more deeply. My approach is warm, open, and collaborative, helping you gently explore and heal the patterns that may be keeping you stuck and move toward a life that feels more fulfilling and aligned. My approach is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. IFS offers a non-pathologizing and compassionate way of understanding why we are the way we are. It recognizes that we are all made up of different parts—some carrying painful experiences from the past, and others working hard to protect us from that pain or from being hurt again. In our work together, all parts of you are welcome and can be met with curiosity, understanding, and compassion, creating the conditions for healing and change. My work is also informed by my own experience of long-term therapy, which has been invaluable in helping me understand the impact of my own childhood experiences, becoming a mother, and navigating change, grief, and loss. I welcome all adults to my practice and am especially passionate about working with people experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-sacrifice, and relationship challenges. Since becoming a mother myself, I have naturally found myself drawn to supporting others through the transition to parenthood and the many complexities of parenting. I am trained in MotherCentered, a holistic maternal mental health curriculum informed by Internal Family Systems, and am about to begin certificate training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International.
