I graduated from Michigan State University with a master’s degree in Counseling and have been practicing as a therapist since 2011. I have experience working with adults, adolescents, and couples, with specialized training in somatic therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).

I am currently an advanced student in the three-year Somatic Experiencing® training, which is one of the primary approaches that informs my work. I also draw from psychodynamic therapy and attachment theory, as well as techniques from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy–Informed (DBT-I).

I believe therapy is an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, and the ways your nervous system responds to your experiences. I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, and respect for each person’s unique experiences and pace. Together, we can explore patterns that may no longer be serving you, develop greater awareness and emotional flexibility, and work toward creating meaningful and lasting change.
