About Working With Me
I was inspired to step into the healing arts through my own struggles with mental health as a teenager and young adult. I know firsthand what it is like to move through the mental health system, to carry trauma, and to discover what it truly takes to heal.
I show up to this work humble, deeply empathic, and with a big heart of compassion. I recognize I am not all so different from you. The difference is simply that I have dedicated my life to my own healing and to supporting others in finding theirs.
​
After emerging from the mental health system more traumatized than when I entered, I made a vow: to be part of the solution. To help create spaces where people could feel safe to receive support. Where they could be truly cared for, deeply seen, and supported in becoming their fullest, most authentic selves.
Together, we walk you home to yourself.
In my sessions, you are invited to cultivate safety, come home to your body, and breathe life back into your dreams. Clients often share that they feel profoundly seen, cared for, and supported. Together, we gently reclaim the parts of you that may have been silenced or lost, and clarify the dreams you long to bring forward. Along the way, I offer skill-building, tools, and compassionate support to help you embody those dreams in daily life.
On my own path toward healing, I cultivated a passion for everything that supports a thriving life. At the center of this is my devotion to the innate intelligence of the body and its inherent capacity to heal. With over a decade of experience in somatic work, I bring a deeply embodied lens to our sessions, supporting healing at the level of both mind and body.
There’s a saying: “Your issues are in your tissues.” When we become aware of what the body is holding, profound healing becomes possible.
That’s why in sessions I intentionally slow the pace, creating mindful pauses—moments where you can truly notice, feel, and be with what arises. These moments allow for conscious integration and the digestion of stored trauma in the body-mind system. Together, we build a space of safety where you can feel held as you integrate and begin to create the life you long for.
From this grounded place of wholeness, we begin to live more fully, more authentically, and more freely.
Experience
My Qualifications
Masters in Social Work, LICSW
Child and Family Therapist
Breathwave Faciliator
I recieved my masters in social work at The University of Michigan, the top social work program in the country developing a strong ethical foundation and skillset within psychotherapy and greater service to the community. Have undergone extensive supervision and honed my clinical lens to ensure a safe and ethical container.
I have worked as a child and family therapist within community mental health clinic supporting youth and families most in need. In my service there, I formed a holistic space that centers the client to empower them to discover solutions that create positive changes in their lives and within a family system. As well as expanded the systems of care towards clinicians and the many who support those families.
How you breathe is how you live.
Through extensive training in breathwork, I support others in not only healing trauma but also repatterning the nervous system and subconscious, opening the way to deeper resilience, clarity, and ease. Breath work deeply regulates the nervous system, rejuvenates the body and enlivens the spirit.
