Life is complicated, especially these last few years. Some changes overwhelm you to the point of not being able to cope with your daily life, leading to irritability, anxiety, depression, hopelessness, and despair. As your therapist, my goal is to provide a safe, therapeutic judgement-free space for you to share your feelings, mental health needs, and to support you through your healing process, with respect, dignity, and empathy. Together, we will collaborate around your needs, strengths, and use effective tools on your journey to emotional wellness. You and I will work to challenge triggers and barriers to your personal growth.
I bring warmth, and humor to my work with 16 years of clinical experience. My specialties include depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, Trauma and Abuse symptoms via Trauma-Informed Care, PTSD, life transitions, grief, relational issues, and emotional struggles. All these conditions worsen over time, interfering with school, careers, and relationships.
Give me the opportunity to provide a dynamic, therapeutic experience, helping you develop coping strategies to manage life’s difficulties. To that end, you will experience more emotional regulation, and a decrease in suffering. I am passionate about working with young adults, adults, and elders, using your natural strengths to help ease life’s transitions.
