I provide individual therapy in a casual, relaxed atmosphere. I act as a guide and challenge you to explore what and why things may not be "working" in your life, as well as provide support and feedback to you about the patterns in your relationships. Finding a therapist who is a "good fit" for you can be difficult, so call me and we can discuss what you are looking for further.

I have extensive training working with individuals who struggle with a range of anxiety symptoms, and diagnoses especially trauma. In my years of practice, I have noticed that many clients lack trust in themselves and the ability to find a positive sense of self. People just want to understand themselves and become more comfortable with how they handle daily life stressors and others. To achieve this goal individuals need support with recognizing triggers and utilizing appropriate coping skills to reduce the negative responses to those triggers.

As a psychologist and psychoanalyst I work with children, adolescents and adults of all ages in a strength-based and relationship-engaged process. With both children and teenagers, I always include parallel work with parents to support and improve communication and understanding. My approach is grounded in a development perspective that appreciates the essential connection between body and mind and recognizes how past experiences and relationships, as well as things outside of our conscious awareness, influence our present-day feelings and behavior. I have successfully worked with persons of all ages who wish to avoid or discontinue the use of psychotropic medications.

Life is a process of adapting to new circumstances. I became a therapist to assist people in navigating through life. As we evolve, we will be faced with various obstacles and having a safe place to process those emotions is important. My passion is for couples and teaching them how to communicate what their needs are in a relationship in a compassionate manner. I also, assist those dealing with grief, and helping to build the self esteem of men and women. My style of counseling is one of love, compassion and humor with a direct approach. I believe counseling can be as light or as heavy as you desire.

My clients are often at a crisis point in their lives – struggling with intense anxiety, uncertainty about their future, or relationship challenges that are painful and confusing. They may feel lost and hurt as they try to make sense of who they are, what they want, and how to navigate the expectations around them. They’re seeking relief, but also clarity and a stronger sense of self. They want to understand why they feel the way they do, make choices that feel authentic, and build a life that reflects their values.

You may feel a sense of stuck-ness, a deep dissatisfaction that makes it hard to get up in the morning. Maybe your brain won't shut up and keeps racing ahead to the next worry, the next fearful thought. One thing's for sure: You want someone to talk to about what's going on, who knows what it's like to feel painfully down and stressed out. Someone who can help you get back on track to a more enriching and rewarding life. I've worked with people struggling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse and relationship issues in a supportive, open way that respects clients' autonomy and values.

You may have scrolled countless profiles promising relief, yet still feel unsure who can truly help. You might struggle with anxiety, depression, anger, people-pleasing, or perfectionism. Deep down, you want to feel more in control of your emotions and free from the weight of unrealistic expectations. Here’s my take: I don’t believe therapy should last for years. Change can happen if you put in the work. My sessions are intentional, productive, and thorough—designed to help you build lasting resilience and not depend on therapy but utilize it for maintenance with a less frequent cadence.

I genuinely believe that the therapeutic space is a sacred, collaborative place where clients and I work together to explore experiences, emotions, internal beliefs, behaviors, and relational patterns. I work with kids, teens, and families navigating the impact of trauma, big emotions, or behaviors that feel overwhelming. Parents often want to better understand and support their child while also feeling more connected themselves. I also support adults who are healing from their own histories and working to strengthen relationships. Together, we focus on building safety, trust, and connection so clients feel understood and supported.

I work with people who carry many layers to their story, whether that means balancing family expectations, managing school or career pressures, navigating relationships, or trying to find yourself when life feels overwhelming or uncertain. I care deeply about supporting individuals from all backgrounds, including people of color, first generation, LGBTQIA+, and anyone who feels the weight of multiple identities or expectations.
