Is it hard to feel “at home” in your mind or body? Do you often criticize yourself or feel out of place? If you are struggling to build a more confident, positive relationship with yourself, it may be the right time to seek support. I’m passionate about helping people build empowering personal narratives, especially around body image and neurodivergence (e.g., ADHD, Autism, and LDs). Together, we can unravel the messages holding you back and practice strategies that bring a sense of freedom, choice, and self-acceptance. I avidly believe in your capacity to reclaim your story and cultivate peace within yourself.
By offering a safe space to explore and express yourself, we can collaboratively practice coping tools, assertiveness skills, and boundary-setting. It is my hope that with these skills, combined with the strengths already within you, you can see yourself truly worthy of care, belonging, fulfillment, or other goals most important to you.
As a mental health counseling intern, I draw primarily from Narrative Therapy to support your process of re-authoring internal stories of self, and also incorporate Internal Family Systems as well as somatic, behavioral (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), and solution-focused therapies to accommodate your unique needs and preferences.
I am currently pursuing a master’s in clinical Mental Health Counseling at Antioch University, and I have a bachelor’s degree in Economics from Western Washington University (2009). I have spent most of my career navigating corporate America. More recently I have worked with children as a paraeducator and adults in addiction recovery.
Outside of counseling I enjoy board games, drawing, pickleball, weightlifting, reality television, and spending time with my cat.
