Life today creates many challenges and obstacles, but also opportunities to grow. Counseling can be a vital part to gaining and maintaining a healthy and well-balanced life. I view therapy as a way to heal through telling your story in a non-judgmental and safe setting. Therapy will give you the tools which will allow you to live your best life. Are you ready to start your counseling journey?

My clients often share that they feel heard, seen, and celebrated as individuals throughout therapy. I apply research-backed, trauma-informed, multi-culturally competent individual therapy to instill hope, self-compassion, and empowerment in young people. Through gentle guidance, developmentally appropriate psychoeducation, and empathic listening, my clients are able to tap into their inner strengths and vulnerabilities, and learn to tolerate discomforts and-- once and for all-- conquer their fears and insecurities.
