Are you facing life transitions, battling anxiety or depression, or struggling with self-esteem? I'm here to offer compassionate support. Many clients tell me that they are feeling exhausted, doubting themselves, or having less trust in others. Their inner critic constantly undermines their self-worth. It's not strange to ask and discover, "What is love?" or "How can things change?" in therapy. I understand the impact of stress on both the body and mind. That is why we'll take a somatic approach to manage stress effectively with cognitive techniques to reframe our thoughts.

Therapy can be Fun, Exciting, and Inspiring; with hopefully some bits of humor if possible. (I get back to everyone within 8-10 hours. If I'm not in network with your insurance, I DO give superbills.) You're hesitant since it's your first time in therapy. You feel empty, hopeless, and depressed. Every day is a struggle due to anxiety and low self-esteem. Maybe you have past family trauma that hasn't been resolved. Perhaps there are cultural confines that have made you feel shackled, lost, and voiceless. I help people dealing with depression and anxiety have a new experience by exploring other possibilities to cope.

I work with people who are ready for change, people who have recognized that they are stuck in unproductive, repeating patterns in their lives and want to break free, and people who are ready to commit to their own personal growth. I have several specialties, including: the management of a broad range of feelings; concerns about body image and sexuality; communication difficulties; loss and grief; empowerment; self-esteem; and, dealing with life-threatening illness.
