I will meet you at your level of readiness for change and support you, as you strive towards authenticity, liberation, and growth.

My counseling style is pretty laid back. I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate, with a pretty good sense of humor. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a dacade of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I make sure that all my time with clients feels genuine and personable. I find it a lot easier, and frankly more fun, when you can enjoy talking with your therapist, and the mental health work doesn’t feel like a chore. I primarily work from systemic theories, and incorporate solution-focused work into my practice. After a thorough exploration of presenting issues, I aim to set clear goals for therapy in the initial sessions. I find it is important to evolve solution attempts to get change started.

My goal as a therapist is to find solutions that work for you on an individual basis. There may be no magic button or quick-fix solution when it comes to changing things from the past that have been difficult, but I believe what we can do is work together to find comfort and resolve the difficult areas of your life, and the challenges you have to face. Through various techniques and long-standing approaches, we’ll be able to figure out what behaviors and/or thoughts might be holding you back from living your best life, and find meaning in everyday situations.

Life is about change and some changes are more difficult to navigate than others. When we are stressed, anxious or depressed, it is a sign that our lives are out of balance. My focus is on providing a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental and compassionate space for adults, couples, and families to share their experiences and to help navigate through some more difficult life changes [positive or negative]; to create more balance in your life. I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to make changes to improve their lives, find purpose, and meaningful fulfillment.

I work from a holistic approach to therapy where I collaborate with my clients and provide treatment best suited to individual needs. I act as a guide to help you grow towards healing, emphasize your strengths, and make meaningful changes. I will help you learn new skills you can use to effectively deal with everyday problems or overcome the struggles you have been dealing with for years. Learning how to deal with your problems and having a greater understanding of yourself will allow you to feel more confident and enable you to re-focus on what is important.

Are you a high-achieving BIPOC woman excelling in your career in a demanding field? While you've worked hard to shatter glass ceilings, the constant pressure to perform at the highest level can take a toll mentally and emotionally. You've achieved remarkable success in your career, but are the stresses and demands of being a high-performing BIPOC are taking a toll. You face unique challenges from racial micro-aggressions and bias in the workplace to the pressure of shattering glass ceilings while striving for work-life balance, while also living with past trauma, mood disorders or relationship stressors.

I believe that every person is equipped with the ability to overcome challenges in their lives, however, sometimes, we get stuck. My goal is to help you grow and gain insight into yourself and your struggles while acquiring the tools you need to face these struggles, and new struggles, on your own.

It is in my belief that we are all intrinsically whole, deserving and worthy of love and meaningful connections. However, somewhere along the way we have incurred pain and hurtful experiences that have tainted our story and lens of how we see the world and ourselves. Sometimes the narrative runs so deep that we can’t stop the thoughts and feelings that flow continuously. In this way, everyday feels like a struggle. Perhaps you secretly feel lost and lonely or you struggle with feelings of anxiety, insecurity or sadness and are uncertain about how to navigate the complexity of your emotions. Wherever you are - your story matters.

Self-exploration, healing, and growth are both important and deeply personal. My approach to therapy is rooted in the understanding that who you are matters.
