My therapeutic viewpoint is that all clients can change if they have a supportive therapist in a therapeutic environment that is conducive to change. Additionally, they must have the desire to change, set goals, and work on the skills needed outside of the counseling session to create lasting change.

Sometimes the world can feel impossibly heavy, and it is exhausting to cope with underlying challenges like chronic stressors, depression, anxiety, or trauma. Having a space to fully vent your worries and frustrations without fear or guilt is so important for mental health, but often so difficult to find. I approach my clients with warmth and without judgment. I work to cultivate a collaborative connection with clients, while empowering them to make sustainable, long-term changes, beyond our time together.

My therapy style is to meet clients where they are and provide a safe space to be their authentic selves through a culturally meaningful lens. I am passionate about supporting clients from all cultural backgrounds to overcome obstacles preventing them from being the best version of themselves. During our sessions, we would explore how your thoughts and past experiences trigger your mood-related symptoms. I believe a strategy for therapy should not be a cookie-cutter approach, therefore, together, we would explore interventions and coping techniques to meet your needs while utilizing your strengths.

In my 15+ years of work as a clinical psychologist, I’ve served the general adult population and veteran and military community. If you choose to work with me, we would create a therapy plan that is specific to your needs. I've trained in multiple modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for a wide range of issues such as depression, anxiety, life adjustments, and sleep. We also can work more flexibly and openly discuss and process issues you bring to therapy.

I believe we all have another level in us that we can unlock from the lessons we learn through self-exploration. It’s an internal process I have been supporting people with for years. For some, it may be reached by healing from traumatic experiences or learning to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, or other mental health diagnoses. For others, it may be strengthening communication, building or repairing relationships, working through familial issues, or discovering the true you. As a therapist, I will guide, empower, and walk alongside you as you work to reach your next level.

When we are struggling with our mental health, the question often asked is “What’s wrong with you?” instead of “What happened to you?” Sadly, many people who have reached out for help have found themselves shamed, invalidated, and in worse shape than they were before. My goal is to provide an affirming and safe therapeutic environment for all identities, and I welcome individuals who are trying therapy for the first time, as well as those who have had previous experiences. I regularly work with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and life transitions.

I strive to provide a collaborative and supportive working space for individual clients or couples with a range of presenting concerns. My clients tell me that they appreciate my warmth and practicality, as well as my willingness to provide an individualized treatment plan tailored to their specific needs. I believe that most clients' struggles-be they with depression, anxiety, attentional difficulties, or relationship issues-are born of and maintained by a range of factors. These factors may include past experiences, family history, biology, or unhelpful patterns of thinking.

As far as I can remember, I have always been a counselor. As a kid, adults would seat next to me on the bus and tell me the problems of their day. I soon learned the value of listening and discovered this was the profession for me. I then went to college and got a BS Degree and later an MSW in Social Work.
