Life is beautiful. Perhaps not all the time, as we can experience ups and downs that remind us of our vulnerability, as well as our strengths. And sometimes we get stuck. Every person we pass by has gone through trials and tribulations. Everyone has overcome various circumstances to become the person they are today. This journey is never ending; we continue to evolve throughout our lives.

Are you struggling with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs last? Do you wonder how your life could be happier or better? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. I believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better life.

Throughout my career, I've found fulfillment in helping others discover their goals and potential. For the past 12 years, I've had the honor of working with servicemen in the military and their families, and I'm happy to now also serve the public beyond. My treatment approach addresses a variety of conditions including anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, life transitions, trauma, PTSD, divorce, grief, anger management, OCD, and ADHD. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) that I use to reprocess trauma and treat OCD, self-worth, and anxiety. I see children and individuals age 8 through adult.
