You deserve to be seen and heard for who you truly are, not what others want you to be. I am passionate about helping client’s find their voice, specializing in treating anxiety, depression, grief, codependency, boundary issues, personality disorders, and addiction. Experiential and somatic techniques allow clients to move deeply rooted blocks that often reside underneath conscious thought. I use gestalt, solution-focused, and ACT approaches to aid clients in gaining awareness of stuck patterns, feelings, and thoughts which hold them back from healthfully and intentionally meeting the challenges they face.

Along my journey, I have obtained experience by working with geriatrics, adults, adolescents, codependency, anger, grief, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, trauma, social justice issues, drug/alcohol use, and identity issues.
Hello and a warm virtual welcome! I will like to invite you to a transparent and empathetic safe place that is centered around YOU. A place where there is no right or wrong answer, but one expectation: just BE. Mental Health can be a topic that is very intimidating to discuss with others, but I like to think of mental health as a tune up on your car - you can drive your car for many miles, but eventually you will need adjustments. Like a car, our mind can run, overwork, and eventually break down. However, the good news is that you have an opportunity to get a mental health tune up and make sure your car is running smoothly.

I also have an extensive background treating addiction, recovery and codependency.
We all go through life struggles, which we are not able to handle on our own. Therapy is a very helpful tool to get the help and guidance that you, your family or typical support network may not be able to provide. My job as a psychotherapist is to work collaboratively with clients to help you heal and grow. My approach is gentle and direct, and while I have confidence in my knowledge about therapy, I treat every client as an individual and learn from every person who works with me. My clients would say they trust my intuition, pay close attention, tell them the truth and empower them with ongoing effective strategies for healing.

Some of my focus areas include: generational trauma, life transitions, relational stressors in romantic and family of origin relationships, codependency, and culturally informed boundaries work.
The teens and adults I often work with are folks who, in their pursuit to “have it all,” are feeling stuck, lonely, and at times may feel overwhelmed by a harsh inner critic. Often times, my clients are introspective, deep thinkers and deep feelers, who want to do what's best for them and their loved ones, but struggle to find the right balance between the two for themselves.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
