About Us

My style is based on the biopsychosocial model of therapy, which is grounded in the idea that mental health does not exist in a vacuum but is impacted by the systems we are a part of. Additionally, my therapeutic style draws from feminist theory, trauma informed therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and motivational interviewing. I have experience working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, victims of sexual violence, as well as individuals struggling with addiction. I am particularly interested in working with individuals that have experienced trauma around sexual violence as well as sexual and gender identity. , I believe that the therapist-client relationship is central to this process, so I aim to help create a safe, nonjudgmental space for this relationship to develop. I know that therapy can be daunting, especially when going through a difficult time, and I honor this by tailoring my treatment approach to each clients’ needs. , Prior to working in the mental health field, I obtained my PhD in chemistry. Through this experience I discovered the lack of awareness and support around mental health issues for graduate students, particularly students with marginalized identities. This led me to pursue social work in hope that I can provide mental health support to folks in need.
