I am a Registered Marriage and Family Therapy Intern that specializes working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, chronic pain, and major life changes. I also work with couples experiencing relationship distress and aim to help them find their way back to each other. My passion and the reason I became a therapist is to work with adult adoptees, donor-conceived, DNA discoveries, and non-paternal event (NPE) individuals. My goal is to help this population navigate, the sometimes complicated, post-adoption challenges such as family relationships, identity, reunion, secondary rejection, grief, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. As an adoptee myself, I have a unique understanding of the challenges this population faces, and I am here to help navigate all that being adopted brings to our lives.
