I work as a counselor, music therapist, and expressive arts therapist. I am a partner in Music Journey, LLC, and we provide counseling, music therapy, and expressive arts therapy services to people of all ages, needs, and identities.

As a person-centered therapist, I believe there is potential to help anyone interested in working with me regardless of their reasons for coming to therapy. That being said, I enjoy working with folks who struggle with anxiety, gender and sexual identities, neurodivergence, self-concept or self-worth, complex and religious trauma, relationship issues, and grief. I am an LGBTQIA+ and relationship-affirming therapist and I'm very passionate about working with people in marginalized groups. I believe that everyone needs a therapist who can listen with compassion and understanding. In our sessions I will try my best to embody the person-centered ideal of being a “fellow traveler” rather than an expert or teacher. I love learning about others' perspectives and enjoy having deep, existential conversations. My intention is to create a safe space for you to share your highs, lows, and everything in between. I am passionate about social justice and identify as a feminist and atheist. I enjoy conversations exploring the impact of systemic oppression, capitalism, and the patriarchy in our daily lives. Together we will seek to find insight into who you are because I believe that this can lead to powerful change.

I see psychotherapy as an opportunity to explore the stories of our lives with the hope of finding healing in our ability to connect more deeply with ourselves and one another other, gain insight, flexibility, compassion, and freedom. I specialize in working with individuals who are looking to heal from trauma, past or ongoing traumatic stress, sexual and gender-based violence, spiritual abuse, and grief. My practice is relational, trauma-focused and is rooted in Feminist, Relational-Cultural, and Attachment Theories. I have specialized training in several therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy, which allows my work to be eclectic and flexible to your needs. The process of finding a therapist can be intimidating. I'm happy to give you a chance to get to know me, my style, and get a feel for what it would be like to work with me.

Have you noticed a change in your child's behavior? Is worry, anger or sadness affecting your family's daily life? Has your child's school expressed concerns? Difficulty coping with change and life's stressors can happen at any age. Without the appropriate skills to communicate their emotions, children often express their feelings through negative behavior. Psychotherapy can be a positive process through which children learn the strategies and skills needed to cope, adjust and effectively communicate their thoughts and feelings. I offer counseling and therapy services to children/families to assist them in this process of change. Engaging the child in the therapeutic relationship is critical to effect therapy. As a mother, I understand how a warm and supportive demeanor can help build trust and allow your child to feel comfortable in sessions. My hope is that your child will not only, see change but also, enjoy the process. Through the therapeutic process, I can work with you and your family to help your child develop the skills needed to effectively cope with challenging emotions and improve behavior at any stage of development. I look forward to providing compassion, understanding and guidance for your child and your family!

Welcome, welcome, WELCOME! All my life I have believed that a person needs to be the change they want to see in the world. Thus my practice is one where people are free to learn, to grow, to express themselves freely and without judgement about whatever ails them. This could be daily life struggles of riding public transportation, or more philosophical questions about the meaning of life, and everything in between. All it takes to start is the willingness to have a conversation. I take a trauma focused, client first approach which makes getting that conversation started even easier! With having a DECADE of experience in the mental health field, I specialize in structural cognitive reality therapy as a certified trauma therapist.

Adults and parents come to this clinic wondering why things are so difficult in their or their child's lives. They often wonder whether their brain functions differently, like whether they may have ADHD or autism, memory concerns, or even a learning disability that was never addressed.

In these cases, I will serve as your co-pilot to help you craft your evaluation questions and I'll help you make sense of the data we collect about you.

Specializing in attachment and trauma, I work with individuals who are seeking to gain greater freedom to make choices around how they live in the world. This may include increasing overall well-being, developing resources for coping, and/or creating a clearer sense of purpose. Often our negative experiences can result in disconnection from our relationships, dissociation or difficulty participating wholly in our experiences, and addictive patterns. Therapy can help us to return to a more intuitive way of living which is centered in curiosity and compassion through connection. My specialties include attachment, dissociative disorders, trauma and PTSD, chemical addiction, and hoarding. I am prepared to assist clients with issues related to identity, including systemic discrimination and/or trauma related to race, ethnicity, gender, and/or sexual orientation.
