Psychotherapy is unique & takes courage. It's fulfilling-yet challenging. Using empathy, collaboration, intuition, open mindedness & humor, we will identify automatic ways of thinking, & behaving- that show up as internal conflict, self sabotage, low self esteem, depression, relationship struggles & anxiety. I have a wide array of experience, working with diverse populations, including POC, people diagnosed with personality disorders, those experiencing psychosis, queer identified folks, folks with learning differences, & students with achievement struggles and imposter syndrome. My practice is trauma informed.

One of the most important aspects in therapy is for patients to feel heard, respected, and understood. Given that each individual is unique, and no one issue is ever the same among different people, my approach is integrative and tailored to meet the needs of the person, not the "problem". I strive to create a compassionate, non-judgemental environment for patients to learn, grow, explore, challenge, and to live the life they want to be living. I specialize in working with adults - individual, couples, and family - with anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, relationship problems, substance abuse, ADD/ADHD, and LGBTQ issues.

Making the decision to seek therapy can be difficult, whether it is for yourself, your child or a family member who is in need of support. Seeking help is not a sign of weakness, but strength to decide to change and be in charge of your own transformation, whatever that may be. I integrate the use of clinical Art Therapy to aid a client’s process and externalize challenges they may have, including issues of trauma, eating disorders, self-harm, grief and loss, medical trauma and major life transitions. I am dedicated to having clients feel empowered and to identify their strengths with self-acceptance and the healing process.

Have you spent time in traditional talk therapy and still feel stuck? Are you repeating old negative patterns in your life that you want to change?

Our subconscious old limiting belief systems take charge much of the time. I provide Hypnotherapy and Life Coaching, and have 20 years of experience as a talk therapist. I'm confident I will help you overcome any problems you're having using this powerful combination.

With all life's pressures sometimes we put our own needs aside. This can manifest itself anywhere from burn out to anxiety and depression.
