"Partnering with you to improve the quality of your life: that is my goal as your therapist. I'm here to encourage, support, empower, and listen. During our first session we will determine your goals for therapy and what changes you want to make to improve your life. To best help you, I use an integrative technique, designed to meet you where are ready to start, and sessions are tailored to your needs and goals. One of the most important therapeutic factors, according to research and my own experience, is finding the right fit with your therapist."

"I thoroughly enjoy working with "emerging adults." Those who may be struggling to find their sense of identity and adapting to the greater demands and responsibilities of adulthood. Have you recently had a baby, and you're struggling with the transition to motherhood? With advanced training in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADS), I have a passion for working with women who are struggling to connect to their baby or finding it hard to feel like themselves again. I also enjoy working with couples and aim to help couples identify repetitive patterns of conflict and access emotions underlying the conflict."

"I employ an integrated and holistic approach both individually and in group. My modalities include existential therapy, psycho-education, sand tray therapy, art therapy, DBT and MI techniques. I address life challenges, conflicts and coming out concerns, while upholding one's psychosocial, physical and psychodynamic strengths and needs. I am working towards my post-MA hours for licensure as an LPC under the direct supervision of Sarah Farnaby, PsyD, LPC, LCPC, Owner and Clinician, and Jennifer Fuentes, MS, LPC, Owner and Clinician at Over The Rainbow,LLC. http://www.overtherainbowllc.com/"

"I love what I do! I can help you turn your insights into action for addictions, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.

"Counseling is amazing. Whether your problem seems simple or more complex, it is a privilege to partner with you through the process. I am one year into my residency working with adults and teens, and have 12 years experience as an elementary school counselor working with 4-12 year olds. Training and work with children has included the following needs/challenges: anxiety, learning and emotional disabilities, anger, divorce, social skills deficits, foster care, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) grief and loss, and more. Work with adults/teens has included helping with issues such as ASD, anxiety, depression, infidelity, and emotional abuse."

""Life isn't about finding yourself. Life's about creating yourself," George Bernard Shaw. I provide a safe, supportive and encouraging environment to help you tackle life's challenges. I have worked with individuals battling addiction, navigating life transitions, and coping with trauma.

While much of therapy analyzes problems, I create a positive environment that will emphasize your strengths and accomplishments so that you can attain your goals."

With 10+ years of experience as a professional counselor I've helped people re-discover their inner strength, tap into their own sense of resiliency, and overcome what seemed to be insurmountable hurdles. Starting a therapeutic relationship is never easy: doubt, fear and past attempts are common obstacles.
