Whether it’s your first time seeking therapy or have previous experience, I’m excited you’re here! Using evidenced based practices, I help clients develop self-awareness and self-compassion to better understand themselves and create positive change. My person-centered and strengths-based approach creates a safe and trusting environment where individuals of multicultural backgrounds feel comfortable to be vulnerable and empowered to make positive, long lasting change for their futures.

I believe that what you are experiencing is real, and even more so, you deserve the opportunity to find purpose and joy in each day. My goal for our work together is to create a space in which you feel safe and supported to share your own unique story. Over time, and through the relationship that we form, we will begin to foster psychological change through the means of building awareness and understanding of how your past experiences influence your current expectations, perceptions and behaviors.

An interactive relationship is the cornerstone of effective psychotherapy. It is a creative collaboration. I work with people to help relieve pain and find ways of living that feel better and more meaningful. Together we identify and work through problematic issues and patterns that undermine successful living. The overarching goals in therapy are to find relief, deepen insight, generate new opportunities, cultivate healthy experiences and enjoy more fulfilling relationships. With some help, everyone is capable of making positive changes.

My goal is to empower you to find the solutions within yourself, to become a better version of yourself, not just now but into the future. I am very compassionate, and hope to provide an environment where you feel safe.

Hello, it's great to meet you! Are you feeling overwhelmed or anxious about transitioning to parenthood? Do you have chronic stress, sadness, anger, or fear related to parenting and relationship challenges? Is your child having social, behavioral, and emotional difficulties? Being a parent can be the most amazing yet challenging experience. I am here to support you through the process. I recognize clients are the experts that they are, and I hope to make you feel heard, supported, and empowered during our collaborations.

People most often contact me when a critical life event has occurred. They may be feeling anxious or depressed, or have become newly aware of a need to make changes in the way they handle their relationships, emotions, and self-esteem. For some, this is the beginning of a long journey of self-exploration. Others prefer to seek new, more effective tools to address the immediate situation. I think that a good clinician should be able to tailor the treatment to fit the needs and preferences of the client. Too often it is the other way around.

Many are in search of a therapist because they have been feeling stuck, disempowered, or conflicted and would benefit from specialized support to gain greater psychological freedom and good health. To this end, we can explore your experience and expectations to foster insight and greater awareness of your needs. I offer a range of psychotherapeutic approaches to promote coping and make meaning out of problematic patterns, losses, trauma, depression, anxiety, stress and difficulty in relationships. Unique to your needs, I offer a co-created therapeutic space to facilitate change; trust, communication, attachment, growth and healing.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, feeling overwhelmed or lost? Maybe you feel unfulfilled in your relationships, career, or other key areas of your life. If you are ready to explore these parts of yourself and interrupt patterns that are no longer serving you, then it may be time to engage in psychotherapy. Psychotherapy is a collaborative process which allows us to look at the areas that are causing distress, and identify ways to adjust your thoughts and behaviors to create positive change. I look forward to the opportunity to partner with you along this journey of self-discovery.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem or going through challenging life transitions.

Holistic Psychotherapy works with the whole of you -- mind, body and soul -- not just your thinking and talking parts. Most of our problems are spiritual, and our symptoms are signs of an emotional imbalance that wants to be fixed, or of something inside us that wants to show itself and grow. So we can be grateful to our symptoms for taking us, kicking and screaming probably, on a journey to our own inside world. That is the place where we can make meaning for ourselves, and where we can find that simple joy is literally just a breath away sometimes.

As your therapist, I will treat you with respect and empathy. I am active, supportive and nonjudgmental. People experience me as warm, easy to talk to, and responsive with a good sense of humor. I treat individuals and couples especially those seeking help with overcoming childhood trauma, ACOA, depression, anxiety, low elf esteem, problems related to aging and LGBTQ issues. I enjoy being part of a relationship in which there is growth and healing. I have grown a lot both as patient and therapist. I have also taught at several institutes and offer supervision in relational psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Many of us struggle with the wish to be close to a lover/partner/spouse while simultaneously feeling fearful of risking vulnerability. Past hurts, traumas in childhood or adolescence, negative family messages about sexuality, body image issues, present-day stresses, betrayals of trust, and experiences of loss, may all contribute to this hesitancy. As an AASECT Certified couples and sex therapist, I will work with you individually and/or in couples' sessions to develop a better understanding of what holds you back from experiencing the deeper physical and emotional intimacy you desire.

Contacting a therapist can feel awkward and scary. Be assured that your internal and external life can and will improve. We can work at a pace you feel comfortable with. We all want freedom from our emotional pain. Worries or anxiety, anger or depression, insomnia, relationship conflict or traumatic memories may lead to escape or excessive dependence upon externals like food, substances, events, experiences and relationships for relief. Escape never leads to peace. Thankfully, we all can learn to find a dependable source of peace inside, in our minds and hearts, no matter the external circumstances. I can help you get there.

Therapy can have a profound impact on a person’s life and overall well-being – offering assistance and guidance in uncovering and healing past wounds, and transforming ways of seeing and interacting with the world. Therapy can serve as a way to gain insight into oneself and ones environmental influences, as well as provide a deeply reparative relationship and process.
