I work with young adults who grew up feeling they had to adapt to an environment that left them feeling disconnected from their true selves. You might struggle with a harsh inner critic or a feeling that you’re somehow ‘too much’ or ‘not enough’. My approach is collaborative and grounded. Together, we won’t just talk about your past - we will actively work on unlearning the old patterns that kept you safe then but hold you back now. From people pleasing to chronic self-doubt, we’ll identify the habits that no longer serve you. And then, we’ll get to building self-trust. We’ll work on strengthening your ability to listen to your own voice, set healthy boundaries without guilt, and finally feel at home in your own skin.

With eleven years of clinical experience and licenses in both Washington State and Oregon, I bring a depth of expertise to my work with young adults. I am trained in EMDR and am IFS-informed - these are two powerful modalities that are particularly effective for healing the effects of Complex PTSD. Together, they provide a roadmap for unlearning old survival patterns and building genuine self-trust. Outside the office, you can find me unwinding in nature, getting lost in reading fiction, and coming up with new adventures to have with my chosen family. 

I believe healing happens best in connection with ourselves and others. When we work together, you can expect me to be present, genuine, and on your team.
