Who I am as a Therapist

Healing, to me, begins in presence—in the pause where we turn inward to tend the parts of ourselves that feel unseen or forgotten. These parts are shaped by relationships, family, culture, systemic harm, and our connection to the natural world. I believe healing happens not in isolation but through connection—with ourselves, with others, and within the systems we inhabit. Whether you’re navigating grief, conflict, or disconnection, our work will honor both your inner world and the relational contexts that shape it.

As a heart-centered, relational therapist, I offer a steady and compassionate presence and will serve as a gentle mirror along your path. In our work together, I show up with authenticity and care, trusting that my humanness can create space for you to embrace your own. I believe healing grows out of this shared presence, where we can explore your emotional world and relational patterns with greater clarity, ease, and choice. For couples and families, I support slowing down reactive cycles, tending to attachment wounds, and creating space for each person’s truth. Together, we’ll explore what’s felt stuck or unsaid, and practice new ways of relating that foster emotional safety, connection, and mutual care. I hold a deep respect for the complexity of relationships—and the possibility of healing through them.

My practice is rooted in trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, affirming care—especially for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ folx, and those navigating neurodivergence and disability. I’m committed to co-creating a space that centers on cultural humility, self-reflection, and awareness of how my own identities are reflected in the room. Clinically, I draw from Attachment-Based, Emotionally Focused, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Humanistic-Existential therapies, while continually deepening my integration of somatic and mindfulness-based approaches.

Who I am when I'm not a Therapist

Outside of my role as a therapist, I find joy in being in nature, having morning coffee in my garden, and being in the company of my closest friends. Originally from North Carolina, I have a deep love of being on warm, sun-drenched beaches by the ocean. Since relocating to Portland, I’ve rediscovered my love for lush green forests, crafting candles, and dyeing with flowers!
