With over a decade of experience within the field, it is my true passion to work with adolescents, adults and families. I have a diverse background, but specialize in difficult life transitions, anxiety/mental health, trauma/PTSD, addiction and emotional regulation difficulties. I offer a trusting therapeutic, safe and confidential virtual space by phone/video to promote vulnerability which leads to interpersonal goals and growth. I practice traditional methods of therapy such as psychotherapy, DBT, CBT, ACT, solution focused, evidence based, and trauma informed care.
I find that holistic and alternative measures of self care are just as important as everyone is unique. Together we will build trust through a genuine connection- addressing a natural sense of belonging in a non-judgmental manner. Do you feel like you are "stuck" & barely hanging on by a thread these days? Let me reassure you, I have also been there before.
Using my education, work, and personal experience I am mindful that starting this journey takes incredible courage. While I believe that the client takes the driver’s seat, it's my role to support the destination and provide navigation to get there. You are deserving of a happy and healthy life and it’s time to claim yours! Book your free 15min consult today
