About Me
Human
I remember wanting to be a therapist from an early age. I have always just felt people, and understood that the struggle and light of human life can take many forms. My way of holding space for you comes directly from my lived experiences, my own pain and learning and loving on this planet. Being a human being can be tough work. And it can also be so beautiful the heart opens with it.
Approach
I find a balance between soft empathetic attunement to your emotions and needs, while also holding clear direct communication around growth edges that I may witness in you. This blend creates a container that honors where you are, and holds your vision for how you would like to see your life change.
My 10 years in the mental health field have brought me to these places:
Arizona Board approved Clinical Supervisor
Program Coordinator of a state wide program to support elders during COVID-19
Social worker for 2 drug rehabilitation courts
Group facilitation for unhoused youth, bereaved individuals, and hospice social work
Suicide risk assessor for adolescents
Outreach coordinator to bring yoga to incarcerated and at-risk youth; internationally trained yoga teacher
While these positions have contributed to my holistic knowledge, being a therapist is where my heart is. I support both individuals and couples navigating challenging relational dynamics, complex trauma, dissociation, stage of life transitions, anxiety, depression, and many other life experiences.
Throughout my career, I have been guided and supported by excellent mentors. My value for learning continuously fosters my knowledge acquisition from people I deeply respect.
Outside of my role as a therapist, you’ll find me in the Flagstaff and Sedona nature, expressing my heart through creation, stillness, and various forms of movement.
