Seeing clients individually and doing couples work are my 2 passions. I'm especially interested in working with clients who want to be involved in treatment and are active participants, as I am very straightforward in my approach. I have had a lot of success with clients who have relationship problems and individuals who struggle with overeating, mood, and anxiety. I am interested in helping people better manage stressors such as separation/divorce, grief, and career related issues.

Looking to work on skills?Looking to find what is working in your life and what is not? Looking to delve deeper into your relationships? Ever wonder if your thinking patterns are healthy or not? I am a trained and licensed therapist. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults who are going through difficult times and have trouble identifying emotions to behaviors. What I love about my work is that although I see people at a low point in their lives, as we work together they find the courage and skills to persevere.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist and I work specifically with children, adolescents, young adults and families who are interested in navigating life's challenges, gaining new perspective, and building better relationships. My therapeutic approach is integrative as I integrate evidence-based practices with client focused goals to produce meaningful results.

Despite all of the time, the effort, the planning and mental energy you’ve poured into achieving the body and life of your dreams, you still haven’t felt that sigh of relief that it’s enough. That you’re enough. And, somehow, the more measures you take to be in control, the more out of control you actually feel. Leaving you grasping and spinning your wheels. Thinking of what you can do to feel a sense of stability in yourself and in your life. The burn out from trying to live up to an impossible standard is real.

I strive to create a meaningful relationship with my clients where they feel heard, accepted and understood. My goal, is to support clients in their journey to learn to live in the present, feel positive and find peace in the world we live in.

Most of the time you handle life's problems pretty well, but right now you may be feeling overwhelmed. I've been there myself and needed a competent caring professional to guide me back to my own inner wisdom and strength. Now I can be that counselor for others. If you're anxious or confused, depressed or lonely, fearful or angry, I can walk with you as you journey toward greater peace and freedom. Take that first step for you. There's hope for you!

You’re caught in a cycle of 'shoulds': I should be happy. I should be grateful. I should be stronger. I should get over it. You worry that you’re a hopeless cause. Maybe you’re on the verge of giving up: Am I destined to live this way forever? Is healing even possible? Living with disordered eating, trauma, addiction, and loss is painful. Diet culture and body hate gaslight us into believing that we are not worthy. As a result, we shut ourselves off from relationships and experiences. We seek ways to numb the pain. In the end, we wind up denying ourselves the pleasure of living fully.

Hey there, I am glad you clicked on my page, let me tell you a bit about myself. I am PA pre licensed professional counselor with a strong desire to help guide and nurture clients of all ages and populations. I value multicultural competence, particularly in my work with LGBTQ+ clients. I use a client-centered approach, which allows me to meet each client where they are, to promote acceptance, and to create a unique therapeutic relationship with everyone that I work with. I aim to help foster clients’ self-understanding and promote mental, physical, and emotional growth and healing.

Sometimes when we struggle, we need help finding the strategies to move forward. Perhaps you are overwhelmed with anxiety, worry, loss or sadness. Maybe you are feeling the pressure to be perfect; in your job, as a parent, friend or even when you think about your appearance. What you seek is relief from this constant pressure. Therapy offers you the opportunity to explore where you are, and then take steps, at your own pace, to establish a healthy balance. You don't have to go this alone. In therapy we will explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviors, and together, with compassion, help you find the balance you strive to find.

Do you feel stressed-out, overwhelmed, have trouble making decisions or find that your emotions are interfering with relationships? Maybe you're a parent who is at a loss of how to help your children with their intense emotions and behaviors. Life is not always easy, but with the right tools you can learn ways to grow and adapt so that you can more easily handle the ups and down of life. Beginning therapy might seem scary, but we will work together to achieve your goals! “Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip toe if you must, but take the first step." - Naeem Callaway

Life can leave you feeling out of control. You’ve strived for perfection in your life and in your body and it's turned into an endless cycle of disappointment. I want you to know you are not alone. It can feel terrifying to release the perfectionism that has helped you feel safe for so long. It can feel especially scary to let go of the dieting cycles that have sold the false promise of what you truly seek: joy, authenticity, and connection. I want you to know healing and recovery from disordered eating is not only possible, it’s liberating.

We all crave connection & positive relationships with others. However, many things often get in the way & can cause us to feel lost & alone. All of us, from time to time, need some help dealing with the tough times that take a toll on ourselves & our loved ones whom we care about. As a Marriage & Family Therapist, I have a passion for helping individuals, couples, & families strive towards change and maintain healthy relationships- working with romantic partners, parents and children, or helping individuals build stronger connect with others . It a privilege to help you manage some of life’s most difficult challenges.

You've tried the diets. You've read the self-help books. You've scoured TikTok and Instagram for answers. But, you just haven't been able to find your way out of dieting cycles, binge eating and harsh self-talk that leaves you feeling defeated and like you'll never feel normal around food or your body. I want you to know that healing is possible. That you can relearn how to trust your body and that you can heal from years of shame, blame, trauma and disconnection from yourself.

My goal is to provide a warm, welcoming environment that allows clients of all backgrounds to feel comfortable so that they can change from the inside out. We can do this together by focusing on the impact of honesty, the difficulty of being vulnerable, and the tendency to focus on our failures instead of small victories. As a compassionate and empathetic therapist, I'm eager to encourage positive change in others. I've worked in an outpatient clinic, an inpatient mental health facility, and as lead crisis assessment specialist, so I can help you tackle goals that you've already identified. Try me! I'm always ready for a challenge.

My ideal client wants something better, has no idea what "better" is or looks like, and has no idea where to start. They are still determining if they are ready to start or commit to that change. What they need is a person and a space to figure it out. Deep down, they know where they are right now can be better, whether in relationships, emotions, daily habits, major life goals, or anything in-between. But, most importantly, they want a space where they can process and grow from that place and build a sustainable life.

My ideal client would be someone who is aware that they need help. They are also prepared and open to doing the necessary work to address their issue. They understand that therapy is a process and not something that can be completed overnight. They understand that their previous methods have failed and are willing to try again with me.
