I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 11 years of experience in the field. My work spans across different developmental stages from adolescence to late adulthood, including group therapy work and couples therapy.

I am a holistic therapist that honors and cherishes your innate inner potential and possibility. I have worked with individuals, couples, parents, and families that are not experiencing their deepest aspirations and desires. Through an integrative holistic approach to therapy, you can be reminded of and accept your innate ability to realize your infinite potential and unimaginable possibility. This allows you to overcome the barriers that hinder living the life you desire. The holistic approach is an existential strengths based approach that works through mind, body, and spirit to gently guide you toward acceptance and recognition of your innate ability.

*Waitlist is full at this time.* I work with people seeking a gentler & less critical way of being with themselves. Some have survived abuse, loss or trauma, while others struggle with addiction or depression. Still others search to quiet anxiety, insecurities or negative thoughts.

Please text or email to schedule an appointment. Therapy is about taking control of your life. We get so caught up with expectations, obligations and roles, we often push ourselves to the bottom of the list leaving very little time and energy to care for or enjoy ourselves.

Together we will explore the areas of your life that may be holding you back from being successful, emotionally healthy and having flourishing, meaningful relationships with both yourself and others.
