Our life's work is helping clients achieve a better sense of self and happiness...more recently we've recognized that without good mental health providers, finding this balance in life can be more difficult and stressful. As a result, we tend toward an Integrative approach and help our clients transform into the people they want to be. We see each client as an individual with many parts to their identity. Utilizing a holistic and systemic approach we help clients reintegrate the parts of themselves to function better as individuals and within their systems. Our focus tends toward a systems based approach using behavior methods.

We sometimes find ourselves struggling in life. Psychotherapy can be a great place to examine where we are, how we got there, and where we want to go from here. I work collaboratively with clients to explore these questions with empathy, curiosity, and care. I am passionate about supporting clients in being their true, authentic selves, and helping them to create deeper connections with the people in their lives. I value the diverse identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences that each client brings. I aim to meet clients where they are at to uncover the right goals for them.

My ideal client is navigating emotional or behavioral challenges like anxiety, depression, or significant life transitions, such as cultural adjustment or relationship issues. They might feel isolated or overwhelmed, struggling to balance their identity and mental health in a new environment. They need a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their emotions with someone who understands and validates their unique experiences. Their goal is to gain insight into their patterns, improve emotional regulation, and build resilience. They want to break free from past traumas and create fulfilling life by investing in their mental health.

We live in a culture where we deal with daily stress and sometimes trauma based on our marginalized identities, whether they be race, gender, sexual orientation, class, or ability level. Combine that with the impact of the pandemic and the stress of the constant negative news feed, and it becomes easy to feel overwhelmed and lose our balance. Having been in practice for 20 years and tuned into the ways in which our culture affects us all, I'm here to help. Reaching out to a therapist can be scary. I work to create an open, judgement-free environment where we will work on your problems collaboratively.

As complex beings, we are created to synergistically function in wholeness in our spirit, soul, and body. When our souls are wounded by negative life experiences, we begin to believe lies about ourselves, the world around us, and God. This leads to the compounding of various negative symptomatic behaviors and thoughts, fueled by a corrupted belief system. It is in the uprooting of these lies through the Spirit of Truth that we find freedom and wholeness, while discovering our created value and purpose this side of Heaven.

If you're not living the life you love, lets talk about it. I work with highly ambitious, driven people whose lives seem to be going well on the outside – but privately, they're in pain. My clients may also experience lack of focus and procrastination. The cause may be evident or waiting to be discovered. Either way, something needs to be addressed in order to fully blossom, and my clients are willing to do the work to address it.
