About Me
I believe that all wounding experiences deserve to be given the time and space to heal. I also believe in the power of safe relationships as a vessel where healing can take place. I provide psychotherapy services to individuals over the age of 18. Services are available both in person and virtually. I'm also an EMDRIA Approved Consultant and offer both individual and group consultation services. If you are a clinician pursuing Basic Training, Certification, or supplemental consultation hours, feel free to reach out directly or visit my website for more information and scheduling. Areas of specialization include complex trauma, attachment trauma, and integration of Expressive Arts Therapy, Mindfulness strategies, parts work, and somatic strategies with EMDR. Whether with clients or consultees, I take my role in creating a safe and supportive environment very seriously. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and racial justice allied. Your identity will be honored here.
Education & Experience
I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker by the State of Ohio Counselor, Social Worker, and Marriage and Family Therapist Board. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Public Health from The Ohio State University, where I became passionate about understanding the contexts and lived experiences that shape people’s health. I wanted to pursue a path where I could work more closely with individuals to improve their health and wellbeing, rather than studying it from afar. This lead to a Master of Social Work degree and career as a mental health therapist.
