I am a licensed independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington State, license #60581955. I received my Master’s Degree in 2015 from University of Washington School of Social Work.
I am a passionate advocate for individuals on a journey of self-empowerment. My path as a therapist began in research and clinical practice with individuals with substance use disorders and severe mental illness at the Seattle VA Medical Center, where I completed my clinical internship and post-graduate training in the Center for Excellence in Substance Abuse Treatment and Education fellowship program.
I am a certified Tai Chi Fundamentals® Adapted Program instructor, and a graduate of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies MDMA Therapy Training Program. I have also worked as both a sitter and a shift-lead for the Zendo Project - a volunteer-operated psychedelic harm reduction program that helps to transform difficult psychedelic experiences into opportunities for learning and growth. Since 2022 I've been a member of the community advisory board for the University of Washington Center for Novel Therapeutics in Addiction Medicine.
In my practice I enjoy working with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, adjustment disorder, seasonal affective disorder, spiritual seeking, and life transitions.
