“If you want to go quickly, go alone. But, if you want to go far, go together.” Life is like an arena, and sometimes we want to throw in the towel. Sometimes we don’t see ourselves where we want to be in our lives or careers. We have habits we can’t break. Our relationships leave us frustrated. Or they don’t exist at all. We’re tired, lonely, and overwhelmed. Maybe it seems like the only one to blame is ourselves. But… We Always Have A Choice! It’s my mission to help you learn to take the reins of your life. Together, we will maximize your chances for success, your sense of fulfillment, and your freedom to choose for yourself.

Growing up, my kitchen counter was an innovative space for the love, joy, pain, community, reimagining, grief, & messiness that life can be. This is what my therapeutic space feels like: a sit at the kitchen counter where you can find release, ease, and home. I see myself as a container by which folks can meet the most aligned version of themselves and cultivate a life that is truly their own. It would be such an honor to hold space for you on your journey back home to yourself. I am dedicated to holding space for all BIPOC folks, but especially women, femmes, and nonbinary folks through their healing journeys

Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by emotional issues or are just looking to move your life to a different place, therapy can provide a place of exploration and safety to reach your goals.

This a group practice that employs clinicans of various ethnicities and backgrounds. People come to therapy due to feeling excessive stress at work, at home, or in their relationships. They find the pressures of everyday life have exceeded their abilities, overwhelmed their senses, and left them with an inability to cope. They are often having problems with school, completing tasks, getting along with others at work, and finding activities enjoyable. We believe in the resiliency of the human spirit, and that therapy is a process of exploring and getting to know oneself.

I work with young adults, adults, and families, focusing on areas such as adult complex trauma, mood disorders, and personality disorders. My practice incorporates various therapeutic approaches, but I particularly favor an integrative approach. During the initial three to four sessions, I aim to gain insight into your unique self, which enables me to tailor the sessions accordingly. In my practice, I believe in the importance of understanding each individual's unique experience and perspective. This means that rather than adhering to a one-size-fits-all approach, I utilize a combination of therapeutic techniques that best suit you

In a world filled with unattainable social media expectations, constant distractions, and disconnected relationships, we may find ourselves lost, trying to figure out who we are, while at the same time finding ourselves uncertain of how to get back to our own version of normal. Starting a therapeutic journey can help to restore (or in some cases create) a balance that will allow for a healthy mental and emotional lifestyle and a renewed sense of self confidence.

If you’re struggling to cope with past traumas, I can help you identify how this is showing up in your present and offer the tools that will create the path to your desired future. Trauma impedes our natural ability as humans to be able to identify and reach goals, and connect and form relationships with others. I know that this can all be worked through with a positive therapeutic relationship and guidance to rediscovering the inner knowing you possess about what you truly need to thrive. My personal approach to therapy is what allows for others to connect with me- I am laid-back, direct, funny, caring, and non-judgement.
