Not accepting new clients
UPDATE as of January 2026 - I am no longer accepting new clients at this time. Therapy is one of those worthwhile challenges in life, but it should always help more than it hurts. I believe that each person has the ability to meet their goals inside of them already and I partner with clients to help them to identify their strengths and put them into motion to achieve their goals. I use elements of various therapy styles and a holistic approach to meet clients right where they are with various planned or unplanned life changes. My goal is to help clients feel supported, safe, and empowered to achieve their goals.

Welcome to a space where therapy meets artistry. I believe healing is more than the absence of symptoms—it is a story worth telling. My practice is a sanctuary where psychology, poetry, and cultural wisdom converge to help you navigate life’s complexities. Guided by the principle of Ren (仁)—humaneness and empathy—I help clients transform their deepest challenges into a narrative of strength. You should choose this path if you are ready for more than 'talk therapy'—if you are ready to engage in the artistry of self-discovery and find a deeper sense of belonging in your own life." Let's begin the work of transformation.

All of us have found ourselves at some point feeling stuck - wanting our story to look different, but without the toolsexperiences to make that happen. As a therapist with more than 10 years experience as an educator, I believe growth happens best with compassion, gentle challenge, creativity and humor. Understanding that what happens to us impacts our mind and our body, I individualize treatment which addresses mind, body and experiences. I provide a safe space to create healthy thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors along with the tools to sustain them. I work with adolescents and adults in individual, couples and family sessions.

Does life feel like a constant uphill battle? You’re doing your best to keep up—with your partner, your kids, your work—but it’s exhausting. You might feel overwhelmed, anxious, or just... stuck. And while life comes with responsibilities, it isn’t meant to be lived in survival mode. You deserve support, understanding, and a space where you can breathe. You deserve to feel joy again. Therapy can help you reconnect with yourself, build emotional strength, and rediscover what joy feels like.

As a mental health counselor, my ideal clients are individuals who feel overwhelmed by stress, trauma, emotional challenges, or life transitions, yet are motivated to regain control of their lives. Many are navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or unresolved trauma, including those working in high-stress professions such as law enforcement, who may carry invisible emotional burdens. Others may be parents or individuals seeking support for ADHD, Autism, or behavioral challenges and want compassionate, structured guidance.
