I’m a licensed therapist with a master’s degree in social work from the University of Northern Iowa, specializing in complex and acute trauma. I am trained in EMDR, body-centered psychotherapies, mindfulness, sensorimotor psychotherapy, and somatic processing and I tailor my approach to help you process trauma and build resilience.
I practice from a strengths-based, trauma-informed perspective, recognizing that every client’s journey is shaped by environment, relationships, and life experiences. My goal is to help you harness your own resilience, develop positive coping strategies, and gain a deeper understanding of your healing process. I strive to create a supportive, empowering space where you feel seen, heard, and accepted.
Outside of work, I enjoy the outdoors, movies, and board games with friends. I truly believe in the importance of self-care, and I often remind my clients:
“You can’t pour from an empty cup.”
