~ ABOUT ~

My path to becoming a therapist was through the weaving of professional and personal experiences and interests: being a mother, a teacher, a social worker, a parenting partner, a resiliency coach, a sister, an aunt, a creative, a nature lover, and even, what feels like a lifetime ago, a theater performer. I have worked in schools, group practice, community mental health, and substance use. I have worked with children as both a teacher, resiliency coach, and therapist, and walked beside parents as they navigate incredibly difficult choices and experiences. I have personally experienced birth trauma, divorce, parenthood, and many of life's ups and downs. All of this has informed and shaped my intervention approach and allows me to provide creative but well informed, person centered, clinically sound intervention.
