My ideal client struggles with low self-esteem, self-doubt, and negative self-talk, often rooted in past experiences. These internal blocks keep them from reaching their potential in personal, professional, or creative areas. They deeply desire to feel empowered, build confidence, and take meaningful action toward their goals. They seek support to overcome limiting beliefs, develop resilience, and create a life they feel proud of—one where they trust themselves and feel in control.

Hi! I'm passionate about providing individualized treatment to fit my clients' specific goals; I use a compassionate, non-preachy approach. I'm certified in clinical hypnotherapy (via the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis), Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), all of which I offer via telehealth. I believe that central to our struggles are trauma are our unmet needs, some past, some current, which have led us to compulsive/addictive behaviors and unhealthy attachments. If clients are open to it, I use a Buddhist psychology and mindfulness lens when appropriate.

All members of a family have an important job. I believe in a family-centered approach that prioritizes connection which promotes resilience in children and their families. As a parent/caregiver, you deserve a space to process your experiences and feelings that arise when caring for a child. Children encounter challenges at every stage of development. Whether these difficulties are typical for their age or arise from unexpected stressors affecting the child or family, seeking counseling might be beneficial. I have decades of experience working with children and find ease and joy in building rapport with kids.
