Are you looking for a therapist whom you can feel comfortable with, who's a "real person" who can give you some real tools to help you deal with the stress in your life? Are you feeling like you're being held back by the weight of the past, having difficulties maintaining healthy relationships, and setting boundaries, all while navigating through daily life? My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental, safe, and secure environment where you can explore the complexities of your inner world. My counseling style is tailored to meet your specific needs and help you accomplish and assist in maintaining your unique goals.
I specialize in helping youth and adults with issues related to adolescent ups and downs, self-esteem, family discord, anger management, communication, social skills, parenting, career challenges, grief, and loss, and help them to better understand how their past has impacted them and be able to heal and move forward.
Let's work together to navigate your thoughts and find more balance and peace in your life!

I work with clients who are challenged with anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem. During our initial session, we will discuss deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. The goal is to decrease the symptoms and sustain improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience.
