I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in the treatment of children, adolescents and young adults along with the families who support them.

Do you feel stuck between two or more worlds, unsure of who you are? Or perhaps you feel trapped in the life you’re currently living. Whether that means sharing your hopes and dreams, making needed changes in a relationship, or expressing your sexuality; I help people better understand themselves, and who they really are underneath cultural, social, and other external expectations and pressures. I am an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC) and an EMDR certified therapist who works with adults and adolescents. I work under the direct supervision of Dr. Jessica Borelli.

I understand relationships are complex and they need to be nurtured. Couples can learn positive interactions and repair past hurts. Therapy helps to improve friendship, deepen emotional connection and creates change which help couples enhance their shared goals.

My goal is to make a positive lasting difference in your child's life. By evaluating how they learn, I can help identify thier potential for success and explain their challenges. With this information I then can help develop intervention strategies and instructional supports that may require a section 504 or an Indivdual Education Plan. It is my belief that every child has learning differences, but by creating a love for learning and resilience, they can achieve great accomplishments.

This may not be an easy time in your life and I respect your courage to reach out for help. Hiding fear of failure or family pressure to be perfect and make it look effortless is a daily struggle.

After facing the pressure from parents, peers, or yourself, you need a place to sort out who you are and how you fit into these pieces. You may be looking for a safe place to work through your challenges, such as when you are experiencing anxiety or depression, or even a unique cultural experience that you feel nobody understands.

The expectation is for us to have everything together: the perfect relationship, job, home, friends, body, high self-esteem, and social media life. - - - - - - - - - - - - The reality is, we have real emotions, feelings, and life challenges. Even the strongest of us need some support in forcing our inner self-sabtoging critic to sashay away. Together, let's create the life you've always wanted.

In such times we all can use trauma-informed and nonjudgmental professional support to help us heal from root causes of these symptoms.

Welcome! I am passionate about my work and take great pride in the therapeutic relationships I have built overtime with my clients, which is why I believe in tailoring counseling to each individuals unique needs.

I understand what you are experiencing and I want you to know, there is hope! I guide people struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, fear, and self-doubt to get unstuck, find inner calm, build confidence, and re-connect to their amazing, radiant, and joyful self so they can move forward in their lives.

It's time- New year, new You. Stressed out & Burned out from everyday life and years of trauma, feels suffocating. Being fed up, defeated, exhausted, & fatigued. There's no place to recharge.

Life keeps getting harder and you have no choice but to keep going. Feelings of dread keep you up at night, disrupts your work, and destroys your relationships.
