became a therapist due to several factors: 1) When I was 14 years old, a close friend completed suicide and until this day none of us close to him know why. This was the start to my journey. 2) After college I moved to NYC and began working in foster care and saw first-hand how trauma starts every and can have a lasting impact on an individual's life. 3) I have always had a passion for helping and assisting since my early years.

I believe that each one of us has the answers to our problems inside of us. However, sometimes we need someone on our journey to help us unlock those answers by asking the right questions-things you may not have considered, presenting proven strategies, and psychoeducation. Although, you will make strides with the energy and effort you give, the number one predictor that one will improve is the quality of the therapeutic relationship. I hope to provide a place of warmth, compassion, and acceptance in which you feel empowered and free to approach any concerns. I am here to help you along on your journey.

As a Jungian analyst, I bring a depth perspective to our work.

Or maybe you know where you want to go but can't see how to get there. You might be experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, hopelessness, or a lack of meaning in your life. Sometimes we need to talk to someone who listens and doesn't tell us what to do or think. We may need to try to put into words what we are thinking or feeling.

My view on therapy is very simple, though not always easy: 'through relationships, we heal’. Many of the barriers that inhibit healthy relationships include negative self-talk, fear of judgement, and our need to maintain a sense of control, especially when we are deeply hurt or wounded. Trauma does not discriminate and it does not wait for an opportune time to present, but we can make sense of it and heal old wounds that hold us back from really connecting with those we love.
