Do you have difficulty managing your love life, work stress, and/or children? Are you feeling anxious and/or depressed? Need help getting through a traumatic event, or just life itself?

You are looking for a therapist who is approachable, relatable, attentive, and actively engaged in session. Someone who can make you feel seen and understood in a safe and inclusive space, while also challenging you to see things from new perspectives.

Life can be overwhelming and difficult sometimes, and we have to remind ourselves that we are worth the time, space, and effort to focus on our mental health and overall well-being. Mental health issues can look different for everyone, and sometimes we feel powerless to combat the problems. Each of us has the ability to identify, set, and achieve goals related to our mental health, even when it seems impossible: sometimes the hardest step forward is the first one.

Life is filled with good times and bad, struggles and joy, ups and downs. I approach therapy with the goal to make life better. I have met incredible people in my life, and I have enjoyed hearing and helping people through their journeys. We are all human, and I think it's important to be very human in therapy. Even as a psychologist, I struggle at times too. Therapy is a wonderful place to learn how you impact the world, how the world impacts you, and to take the control back. After all, we can't change the things that happen around us, but we can change what we do about them.
