(she, her, hers)

Taking the steps towards therapy can be uncomfortable, especially if this is your first time seeking therapy or if you just haven’t found the right fit yet. I am passionate in knowing that authenticity and connection can foster a safe space to be exactly as you are with understanding, non-judgment, and empowerment.

I strive to see my clients through a multicultural lens, taking into consideration any social, racial, or cultural identities they feel are important to who they are as a person and how they relate to the world around them. I am also an ally of the LGBTQIA2S+ community.

Under Dr. Misty’s supervision and operating from an acceptance and commitment therapy approach, I incorporate trauma-informed and somatic (mind-body) interventions, mindfulness and yoga, play and expressive therapies, as well as collaborating with my clients on how they would like to reach their goals and/or work through tough transitions in their life. I can also
incorporate more practical tools such as DBT and CBT skills.

After graduating from Northwestern’s Clinical Mental Health Counseling Graduate Program in 2025, I plan to pursue a certification as a Somatic Experiencing practitioner to be even more immersed in the healing of trauma for children, teens, and adults. In my free time I like to take walks outside with my dog, explore waterfall hikes with my partner, and enjoy all forms of music.
