Those people who find their way to my practice have a deep desire to move out of reactive patterns from the past. There is a longing for healthy relationship and fulfilling work with a willingness to do what it takes to have it. Many have had therapy in the past, are clear about their issues, yet still find that they are dragging the same issues into relationships today.

I work with adults and adolescents experiencing a wide range of anxiety disorders. I specialized in the treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) related disorders. These are challenging times. I understand that reaching out for therapy can be a challenging and courageous step. It takes strength to confront your fears and seek support, but it can also be the first step towards healing.

I have had the privilege of providing services to individuals, couples, and families facing a wide range of challenges including depression, loneliness, life transitions, perfectionism, relationship challenges, family conflicts, anxiety, body image, stress, trauma, identity concerns, and LGBTQIA+ issues. It is my role to meet you where you are in your life right now, support you during challenging times, and help you to know yourself better.

Welcome to a nurturing space where you need not face life's challenges alone. I understand the weight of worst-case scenarios and the drowning out of reason. Life transitions can be daunting, especially if you deviate from the heteronormative path. My approach is warm, laid-back, and compassionate. Our work is based on trust, respect, and your goals.

My experience & education strengthens my ability to empathize with & support clients across my areas of expertise incl ADHD, Trauma & Work life problems amongst other issues. Before becoming a counselor I worked in corporate IT and telco, and enjoy working with people in the tech space. My approach is personable & empathetic & pride myself on being down-to-earth & unpretentious. Clients have commented on how comfortable they feel working with me, trusting that I have their best interests at heart. When appropriate I am also known to have a spring in my step and smile on my face.

Do you feel stuck in your life and do not know how to move forward? Do you feel inadequate and find it difficult to find good in yourself and your life? Do you often try to please others while ignoring your own needs? Do you struggle to maintain intimate relationships? Do you sometimes feel confused and dissatisfied about yourself and want to know who you are and want to be? If any of these resonates with you, I may be your therapist.

Life is a journey. It can be joyful, sad, messy, and complicated (sometimes all at the same time!). My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, supportive space for you to explore all of these aspects of your life. I work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, trauma, stress, life transitions, and problems with self-esteem.

My specialties include low self-esteem, anxiety, trauma-related issues, insecurity, attachment styles, and FOO (Family of origin) issues. I tend to work well with clients who appreciate connection, honesty, and humor; who are interested in learning new things; who are into music and arts; who possess sensitivity, intuition, and a spiritual inclination. I particularly enjoy working with bilingual/bicultural individuals experiencing an identity crisis; college students or young professionals feeling stuck; and parents/couples who wish to improve their parenting/partnership by healing their own emotional wounds.

I am accepting new clients. My clients are children, adults, and families. Adult clients are usually motivated to enter therapy by intrapersonal or interpersonal issues. Children often present internalized or externalized behavior problems and are brought into therapy by a concerned caregiver. Children may be depressed, withdrawn, angry, defiant, or underachieving. Therapy with children is very different from therapy with adults and requires an approach that is developmentally appropriate. I provide a confidential, safe place to explore psycho dynamic issues and collaborate on approaches that feel right for you.

My areas of focus are preteens, teens, and adults. I specialize with borderline personality disorder, anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, eating disorders, trauma, parenting concerns, family conflict, and self-esteem issues. I work with individuals 10 years old and up. Sessions are focused on your unique needs. Interventions are engaged that will help foster a healthy sense of self and promote healing. My session is a safe space with acceptance at the core. I am humbled to join with an individual and support them in their life story. In our sessions, your voice will be honored and used as a resource to obtain your goals.

I am available to help you heal, navigate relationships and transitions, and discover why you may face the same challenges again and again. If you feel trapped, uneasy or stalled in making decisions, I can help. The stresses of life squeeze our ability to think clearly and feel at the same time. As a result, our emotions rule us, resulting in depression, anxiety, anger, and relationship difficulties. I use evidence based practices, such as ACT and DBT to help clients regulate their emotions and reach their goals.

Emotional pain can feel awkward and difficult to express. I know how hard it can be to make that first move and turn to someone for help with anxiety, depression, panic,trauma, self-loathing, or concerns about relationships with important people in your life. I use an insight-oriented approach to help my patients make meaning of their feelings and current behavior in light of both their chorus of internal voices and their actual psychological histories.When a patient becomes aware of 'the past operating in the present', a space begins to open up in their minds for making different choices.
