I work with people to help them through hard times. I do all I can to make my clients feel understood, and then we work together to develop and implement techniques to improve their lives. This may mean making it though a change in life, or working to build back to health that has been lost. I try to address every part of my client's life and work to bring them into a fuller expression of themself.

Working with the client to realize ways to a better understanding of their unhealthy thinking patterns.

Being a human can be a struggle even in the best of times. For many of us, now is not the best of times, making support for your mental health and well-being more important than ever. As your therapist, I hope to hold space and walk alongside you in whatever season of life you are experiencing. With warmth, humor, sincerity, and care, I strive to build a relationship with each of my clients that cultivates empowerment and deep compassion for self. I believe that change is possible for everyone and anyone when they have the right support.

Hello and welcome. By taking the time to seek counseling, you are taking a big step toward wellness. I understand that finding the right fit in counseling is of vital importance to the healing you want to experience. My approach toward counseling is focused on the person sitting (virtually) in front of me. My aim in establishing a helpful counseling relationship is to build a space where my clients feel safe, heard, seen, respected, and cared for. I believe that effective counseling is a process in which my clients have the space and feel empowered to explore their life experiences safely.

Looking for a therapist means that you have made it this far in your healing journey; and that you are working towards the change that you feel you need. My professional experience centers on working with children and adults seeking counseling and crisis management, while supporting their caregivers and or parents.

You're someone who is looking to find just the right fit in a counselor. Maybe you are experiencing grief, or having difficulty adjusting to life changes. Perhaps you have a general sense of dissatisfaction with life, or have specific things you want to work through. Or, maybe you're feeling trapped by anxiety, or past trauma, and you want to feel a sense of hope; to be seen, heard, and understood. There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy, and the things you may want to work on are important and unique.

I am an integrative and culturally sensitive driven therapist who works with teens and adults to unlearn systemic inequalities and process intergenerational trauma, grief, and anxiety, so you can confidently befriend your feelings, navigate life transitions, step into authenticity, and feel more at home in yourself. Often times when we are going through something difficult, it can be hard to see our way out. This may lead to spiraling thoughts, a lost sense of security & safety, thinking "I'm not good enough", consistently feeling on edge, and feeling disconnected from ourselves and others.

The moment we start to think "who am I," "why am I like this," or "is this the true version of who I am" are moments I consider to be breakthroughs. Moments of self-reflection can be difficult to understand, difficult to seek answers, and just the thought seems bizarre or confusing. At times it may not even be self-reflection. Instead, it is the feeling of guilt, shame, worthlessness, or insecurities. It can also show up as anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, somatic symptoms, interpersonal challenges, or strain in quality of life. This is the result of exposure to or experiences of neglect and abuse during our lifetime.
