Life is inherently uncertain, marked by constant change—relocation, new diagnoses, parenthood—each evoking a spectrum of emotions. Navigating these challenges without the right knowledge or tools can feel overwhelming. This is where therapy serves as a guiding light. My objective is to cultivate emotional well-being and personal growth, considering all facets of life through a person-centered, multicultural approach. Acknowledging the uniqueness of each client, I tailor my approach to their individual strengths and abilities, rejecting the notion of a one-size-fits-all solution.

Waitlist for new clients
In my 13+ years of being a therapist I have found that the traditional face to face support works wonders for some, but is not a good fit for others. Some of my clients have found sitting in one place for 45 minutes a challenge, or feel too much pressure to truly open up and share what they are thinking and feeling. With this in mind, I hope that my practice will serve as a new space for people seeking support in a slightly different manner. I hope to use "walk and talk therapy" to give an outlet to those who would usually outright avoid counseling, or not fully invest as it doesn't work for them.

We could all use a little help sometimes working through life's road blocks and getting to the bottom of what got us here in the first place. Since each client's needs are unique, I prefer using an eclectic approach that is grounded in cognitive behavior and psychodynamic therapies aimed at building confidence and strengthen coping skills. I work toward helping clients identify their own troublesome patterns that interfere with living more authentically.

Clients can experience a life situation or a series of life situations that cause some level of unwanted emotional arousal (sadness, hurt, pain, fear, anxiety) and as a result of the intensity, increases an urge to do a behavior they consider ineffective (self harm, suicidal behavior, isolate, withdrawal, shutdown, verbally/physically aggressive, tantrums, obsessions, compulsions, avoidance, school refusal). They are in need of skills to help them cope with their emotions and problem solve their life situations. Despite the discomfort, they want to be effective, maintain relationships and feel better.
