I often talk about how empaths and narcissists have a magnetic attraction to one another which is true, but an empath who stays in such an environment is usually an unhealed empath. An empath who over gives without boundaries. An empath who holds onto false hope that the other person will change. Become a self care warrior, and empowered. You Do You! Am empath will carry unhealed wounds, that they're responsible for another persons behavior and moods.

We can work together as you build a life that has meaning for you. I will teach you techniques to change your self-talk so you can build your self-confidence and feel good about yourself and your relationships.

Middle school and high school are exciting times of our lives, marked by identity exploration, experimentation, and formation. And yet, they can also be some of the most stressful and overwhelming times of life — full of uncertainty, new expectations, and never ending pressure. There comes a point where it just feels like too much. That’s when grades begin to slip, extracurricular activities start to drain us, and our relationships with friends and family suffer, leaving us feeling isolated, lonely and misunderstood.

My passion is helping those I work with to improve their quality of life, increase coping/resiliency, and improve overall well-being.

Hi. I am so glad you are here. I hope you will find what you are looking for. Therapy is an art form that allows for tailored interventions addressing your concerns. While we all have the tools for a fulfilling life, we may experience feelings of being stuck, overwhelmed, helpless or trapped in an unhealthy world. This does not need to be your life! As a therapist, I will help you illuminate your path, gain self-understanding, and refocus your energy to build harmony.

My priority first and foremost is to build trust in the client-therapist relationship. It can be challenging to share painful thoughts and emotions with others, so I believe it is a privilege whenever I am allowed into someone’s internal world. I take a holistic and collaborative approach to therapy, working with clients to address life transitions, family or relationship issues, overwhelming emotions, and self-harm. Having worked extensively with ethnically- and gender- diverse populations, I especially enjoy helping young adults explore their sense of identity and find meaningful roles in their communities.
