My therapy practice is dedicated to working with people who are feeling stagnate within their lives and looking to break free of a negative mindset, unhealthy patterns of thinking, lack of boundaries, chronic feelings of low self-esteem or not knowing your worth associated with unhappy, unfulfilling relationships. For the past 15 years I have specialized in working with adults and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, anger management, life transitions, domestic violence, sexual abuse, childhood trauma, and relationship problems. I am a culturally sensitive therapist that specializes in an array of modalities.
I am strength-based in my approach and believe you have the tools necessary to be successful. For us to do our best work together, the therapeutic relationship needs to be strong and authentic. The ability to challenge your behaviors and invest in yourself, is the most empowering feeling you can gain from therapy.
We all have personal life challenges and the need to feel heard, therefore, I feel honored to join you in this journey of self-awareness and self-love. Reading about me here is the first important step. Now take the next step and contact me by phone or email. Let's discuss getting you the assistance you deserve.
