Do you want healthier, more fulfilling relationships? Do you crave depth + intimacy, but are afraid of being seen for who you truly are? Do you hide parts of yourself or abandon who you are in exchange for approval? Let's get to the root. I offer a holistic and trauma-informed approach aimed at setting you free from past trauma + shame cycles. I help you connect the dots from the past to your present. As a result, you step into your power and become a conscious creator of your life, work + relationships. Our work connects you back to your most wise, loving and authentic self.

The therapy journey can be hard. Working towards your own personal evolution and transformation can be scary. I personally have worked with countless professionals who made me feel like this journey was going to be impossible and hopeless, and it's for this reason that I know how deeply you need a guide you can trust, someone who will walk with you through this experience every step of the way and make it as simple as possible. At the end of the day, the person that can help you the most is the person you feel most connected to; the person you feel safe sharing with. My intention is to be that person for you.

Taking charge of your life starts today. Through collaboration, you and I can begin identifying stressors, barriers, and overwhelming problems in your life to get things "back on track". My mission is to help you develop and promote your ability to heal, skills to self soothe, stimulate personal growth and awareness, and better connect with your authentic self. Sometimes this might involve tools such as building assertiveness, navigating relationships, creating boundaries, and improving your confidence in managing personal stress. Stress comes in all shapes and sizes and is not limited to trauma, loss, heartache, and change.

Initiating therapy can be a challenging process. Whether this is your first time looking for a counselor, or you've had one before, picking who you want to work with can be daunting. The initial sessions are meant to build trust and rapport, setting the foundation for a comfortable environment to open up and share your experience.

We repeat unwanted behavioral patterns we learned during childhood because it is comfortable and on some level, it feels safe. The focus of my work as a therapist is to help you identify those patterns in your life so you can start to make a conscious decision to shift, and leave behind what isn’t serving you. Together, we will work on developing your self-awareness so you can eliminate the obstacles that stand in the way of your happiness.

My approach is based on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) that takes client goals and utilizes techniques to accomplish the desired objectives. It is a collaborative, reality-based method informed by mindfulness and life-coaching strategies. This is a holistic approach and can last for 12 sessions or longer based on client’s choice. I encourage and assign homework between sessions and am always open to new ideas that will assist in your growth.

Thirty years' experience working with children, adolescents, families, and adults from every walk of life. Using a holistic approach to counseling involving mind, body, and spirit to help and support clients through their journey into recovery. Client-centered, bilingual and bi-cultural. Professional background on family and individual therapy, alcohol and substance abuse, trauma recovery, dual diagnosis, cultural transition, intimate partner violence, and pastoral counseling.

Men, women, and couples who seek relief from anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict find me to be of assistance. People I treat tend to be highly functioning with regard to family, employment, and community. For many, however, the appearance of success is not consistent with their degree of emotional suffering. The pressures and stress of money, work, and relationships can be overwhelming at times. Since each person's suffering is unique, my approach is tailored to each individual or couple I see. My skills and energy help create an atmosphere of trust and hope so positive change can occur.

Everyday living is not without stressors. How we react to events or interact in relationships can be a struggle as well as puzzling. Why do we feel the way we do? Why do we continue to make the same mistakes over and over again? How can our perceptions be so different from others? How do early experiences impact our perceptions, feelings, and behaviors? I provide a safe, comforting environment for you to explore and reflect on your past and recent experiences, feelings, and relationships. My approach is to facilitate change based on your expressed needs and goals.
