Experiencing safety is necessary for healing to occur and I believe this is crucial in forming healthy relationships. Developing therapeutic relationships with people who have experienced abuse, neglect, and grief/loss is at the core of the work I do. I focus on providing a stable, affirming, and safe enough place where clients can process their experiences and the ways they have influenced them and their world.

My approach to therapy begins with meeting people where they are and honoring the things that make them unique: their experiences, relationships, identities/roles, and culture. I greatly enjoy working with and learning from diverse clients. I accompany clientsin discovering theirinner resources to foster growth.
Acknowledging the importance of various systems and relationships, I collaborate directly with clients, and I regularly communicate with family members and other professionals.

I appreciate the meeting space of psychotherapy as both an art and science. I have specialized training in various trauma and grief-focused modalities. After determining individual needs, I select an appropriate approach to treatment. Working primarily with complex trauma, I often use a phase-oriented trauma approach, and I incorporate Ego-State Therapy and Clinical Hypnosis.

I am an Erie-ite and a licensed Clinical Psychologist. I earned my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Hawai’i School of Professional Psychology at Chaminade University of Honolulu. While in school, I spent several years providing support to survivors of sexual assault and their families. My graduate research focused on the healing process of sex trafficking survivors. I love learning and plan to continue attending trainings and workshops.

Our team of experienced therapists and compassionate support staff are here for you. 

We look forward to meeting you.
