About Me

With over 10 years of experience as a therapist, I am passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment to help individuals heal and grow. My clients would describe me as warm, down to earth, and genuine. Before starting Rooted Insights, I provided therapy in community mental health, outpatient substance use programs, and correctional facilities.  I have also worked for multiple non-profits, managed psychology research studies, taught English abroad and am a former AmeriCorps volunteer. These experiences cultivated a lens from which I view the role that culture, race, socioeconomic status, and systemic factors have on health and wellness.

I absolutely love learning and am constantly reading, training, and consulting with other clinicians to help my clients get high quality care. I also enjoy doing yoga and meditation, cooking, gardening, spending time in nature, listening to live music, and being with friends and family.​
