I have several years of experience working with adolescents and their families. I enjoy guiding clients to explore their family values, communication, behavior patterns, emotions and changing needs of individual family members.

I specialize in working with couples, families, and individuals (adolescents and adults). Utilizing a collaborative, eclectic approach, I bring warmth, humor, and curiosity to the therapeutic relationship.

We all have times when we run out of ideas about how to deal with problems in our lives. It can help to involve a new set of eyes and ears to see things from a different angle. We work to gain new skills and insights, and tap into our forgotten strengths, to create independence and lasting positive change. We look at the rigid and unhelpful patterns we have, and work together to form new ways of thinking and doing. While this process unfolds you are free to be your authentic self, without feeling judgment, powerlessness, or shame, in a safe and trusting atmosphere.

I come to the mental health field with a desire to serve my community, you, to connect to your authentic self and ignite your healing journey.

I am passionate about social justice and equity in mental health and strive to provide counseling services that address cultural and contextual factors in diverse communities to ensure all members are psychologically and physically safe and secure.
