Before I became a therapist, I was a high school English teacher, a college professor, and a yoga instructor. That path wasn't random -each role taught me something different about how people grow, get stuck, and find their way back to themselves. I bring all of that into my practice and teachings now.

I work with adults across Nevada who are wrestling

with anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, trauma, and self-worth.

Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside and

exhausted on the inside. They've tried pushing through. They've

read the books. They come to me when they're ready to actually

go somewhere different.

I'm also a Level II Reiki practitioner and E-RYT 500+ advanced yoga teacher — which means I understand that healing isn't just

cognitive. The body is part of this too."

My approach is integrative and body-aware. I draw primarily from Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic Therapy.

IFS, in particular, changed how I see people. Instead of labeling

behaviors as 'bad habits' or 'self-sabotage,' we get curious about

the parts of you doing those things — and why they developed. Most of the time, even the parts that seem destructive are trying to protect you. Once clients experience that shift in perspective, things start to move.

I'm LGBTQ+ affirming and deeply committed to working with clients across diverse backgrounds, identities, and life experiences.
