Clients I Work With

I work with people navigating trauma, intense stress, and suicidal thoughts. Together, we'll get to the root of what's going on-not just manage the symptoms but understand what's driving them. I believe that no individual is the same and therapy should be personalized for the individual. You should feel supported while we build a plan that actually fits your life.

Approach

I use approaches like CAMS to help work through suicidal thoughts. I employ EMDR to help process past experiences.I work with people navigating trauma, intense stress, and suicidal thoughts.

Working with horses can help you build confidence, understand your emotions, and practice boundaries in a different, and often powerful way.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

I've been working in mental health field professionally since 2012. I've worked on child and adolescent inpatient units, in crisis work in collaboration with the state suicide hotline and in outpatient treatment settings. I've completed internships working with adolescents in substance abuse treatment and with a community mental health clinic. I believe in meeting people where they are at. I also believe that no one approach best fits every individual. I feel it a deep honor to sit with clients as they work through life and create a life they love.
