My philosophy and approach to helping clients is to do a thorough assessment and develop a treatment plan that is characteristic of that client and guide clients through therapy to healing. Each client has a uniqueness about them and my work is finding it and helping that client realize it and live in it. Perception is the key to understanding. Awareness is the key to realization.

Do you find yourself startling awake at night, haunted by memories you can't shake? Maybe you're exhausted from carrying the weight of past trauma, feeling stuck in patterns of fear or anger that affect your relationships. If racial discrimination or gender-based harassment has left invisible wounds that others don't understand, you're not alone – and there is hope for healing. As a trauma therapist with 19 years of experience, I provide a secure sanctuary where adults can break free from trauma's grip. Using evidence-based approaches like EMDR therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), combined with a feminist, anti-racist lens, I help clients calm their nervous system, process painful memories, and rebuild a sense of safety. I understand that trauma doesn't happen in a vacuum, and I specialize in addressing the unique impacts of racial and gender-based trauma. What makes my approach unique is the genuine connection I build with each client. At Mosaic Bloom Counseling, you'll find a space where you feel truly safe, seen, and affirmed. Together, we'll move at your pace, transforming fragmented experiences into a meaningful whole that honors your strength and resilience.

**I have a limited number of in-person and telehealth sessions available. Please contact me to see if I am a good match and our schedules align.** My initial goal in therapy is to deeply understand the unique individual sitting across from me. I take a holistic approach to this task. I understand that the mind, body, spirit, and relationships are all connected and impacted by one another. I think of my clients as more than just a collection of problems and diagnoses. I want to understand your strengths and talents as well as your struggles and areas for growth. I also want to understand where you have come from and where you would like to go. As we better understand how your life story impacts your current feelings, motivations, and relationships, you will likely experience increased self-acceptance and the ability to make to make better decisions about your future. Intellectual insight alone, although useful, is often not enough to allow clients to fully make the kinds of life changes that they desire. Consequently, I also utilize methods from more action-oriented approaches to therapy that focus on obtaining new skills and practicing new behaviors. These skills are often focused on learning new ways of managing difficult feelings and improving communication and intimacy in relationships. I believe that a therapist and client should work together as a team. I will bring my energy, experience, and compassion to the therapeutic relationship. I ask you for openness, honesty, curiosity, and a willingness to experiment with new ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. My goal is to work with you to help you achieve a greater sense of happiness, peace, integrity, and satisfaction in your life.

After struggling with anxiety or depression for long enough, you may start to feel stuck. Anxiety and depression can make us think and act in ways that ironically leave us feeling even more anxious and depressed, creating a kind of "vicious cycle." Fortunately, advances in evidence-based therapies have given rise to interventions that can reliably interrupt this cycle, so you can stop struggling and start living. I work with my clients using cognitive-behavioral and humanistic approaches, and incorporate mindfulness-based interventions to decrease the impact of challenging thoughts and emotions, while simultaneously increasing engagement with who and what matters most. Your values and goals will guide our work together every step of the way.
