I am a dedicated therapist with a passion for helping folks on their path to self-discovery and self-worth. I believe that true growth and healing occur in a safe and nurturing space where you have the ability to embrace your vulnerability.

Everyone has issues & problems. Healthy people admit it. I grew up with debilitating anxiety & OCD. In life, you can choose passion or fear. I chose fear for 30 years. I was a prisoner to anxiety when I found myself at the end of my proverbial rope. I began working with a therapist who helped me to understand the root causes of my fears, but I still felt stuck. I started working with a somatic coach who taught me about mindfulness & body work and took me on a life-changing journey to India, where I trekked in the Himalayas & discovered my life's purpose - to turn my trials into triumphs so that I can help others to do the same.

We all need support at times to care for our internal and external worlds, and to dive into the depths of our often layered lived experiences. To care for ourselves in this way, we may need to pull up the weeds of adversities or traumas at a pace that feels right.

Through attention and intention in therapy, I believe that flowers of wisdom, curiosity, self-compassion, resilience, and hope can grow.
