My goal is to help you feel better. I am a compassionate listener, and I provide a safe, welcoming environment where we can discuss the events or feelings that trouble you. Many people come to therapy believing that their difficulties or emotions are overwhelming. Rest assured, it is possible to change your reality by understanding the patterns, conflicts and obstacles that interfere with your success and happiness.

Relationship strain, communication issues, PTSD, anxiety, trauma, mistrust of happiness and feelings of depression are some of the experiences I help you heal from. I work with folks whose past pains are inhibiting present fulfillment within relationships and quality of life. We work together to navigate stressors and responsibilities they are expected to keep up with, while managing past pains to relearn safety on their current path. I treat the person as a whole- meaning in addition to your psyche, I also take into account your environmental, circumstantial, and physical self and how that impacts your mental health overall.

I provide empathic treatment to teens & women presenting with various clinical needs. An eclectic therapeutic approach is provided, including CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, play, art & yoga therapies. I provide treatment to those experiencing symptoms of Depression, Anxiety, self-esteem issues, future/career planning, relationship issues, grief, life transitions, or developmental & learning disabilities. I look forward to working with you closely & compassionately to identify your strengths, challenges, & areas to focus emotional energy to move towards growth, healing, & change. Together we will support you to empower & guide you towards goals that will help you feeling more emotionally positive, healthy, & balanced.

The complexities of human nature is something that many of us grapple with. Therapy, although seemingly scary, intimidating and overwhelming at first, can lead to change, growth and a high degree of satisfaction when an individual is willing to look at themselves in a new light. I believe in treatment that is collaborative which encompasses a conversational dynamic. I provide individual, family and couples sessions for various issues, some of which include; anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, communication problems, life transitions, issues with interpersonal relationships, work stress and other stress related issues.

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.

You are ready to face your traumas and learn the tools to overcome the symptoms that take away from your happiness. You need supportive and nonjudgmental guidance to explore your thoughts, feelings, and history. You are looking for a collaborative and solution focused therapeutic dynamic. I'm so happy that our paths have crossed, lets get to work. My office is a safe space where you can explore challenges without any fear of judgement. Therapy can feel daunting but I am ready to be there by your side as we dig deep, connect dots, uncover patterns, and overcome trauma. Today is a great day to begin healing.

Hi! If you’re seeking out therapy, then it’s likely you’re a little nervous. If so, take a deep breath! I’m here to create a space where you feel safe and supported as you share your personal story. In therapy we will focus on practical skills for addressing your symptoms and explore how your story of self has been shaped by both current and past relationships. I enjoy working with emerging adults, adolescents, and anyone eager to build a “life worth living.”
