I have been working with clients since 2009 who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, OCD, PTSD/trauma, relationship issues, codependency, life transitions, and other symptoms.
While I tend to focus on CBT, I found other approaches such as DBT, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic, and others to work the best with certain disorders. I learned to focus on what I struggle with and need to change.

Although I am comfortable working with many concerns, I am most passionate about providing therapy in areas related to anxiety, depression, codependency, addiction, life transitions, grief/loss, and relationships.

I specialize in supporting clients navigating anxiety, low self-worth, self-esteem challenges, codependency, boundary-setting, dating, relationship issues, and the lasting effects of growing up with emotionally immature parent(s).
Many of my clients look successful on the outside but feel stuck. They find themselves overthinking, people-pleasing, and questioning their worth. Many grew up with a parent who was critical or emotionally immature, and now struggle with boundaries, self-trust, and anxiety in relationships. Others are navigating the impact of a more recent event like a difficult breakup, accident, illness, or loss that they just can’t seem to move past. Longing to address these issues, my clients are seeking insight, healing, and empowerment.

I work with emerging and young adults to navigate anxiety, depression, family and generational trauma, inner child and shadow work, codependency, boundaries, self-esteem, relationships, and cultural identity.
Do you feel overwhelmed by emotions but struggle to put them into words? Maybe you cry or panic instead of expressing what’s truly inside. Perhaps you replay the past, wishing you could do things differently with the wisdom you have now. You might feel unheard or invalidated because communication feels difficult or even unsafe. As a POC therapist, I understand what it means to suppress emotions for family’s sake and follow silent, suffocating expectations. Together, we’ll explore how these unspoken rules shaped you and develop tools to express emotions that once felt impossible to name.

I support adolescents and adults in examining and finding recovery from trauma, addiction, alcoholism, codependency, and eating disorders.
Have you noticed changes in how you deal with stress in your life? You may feel like you need to hide certain parts of yourself from your friends or family to avoid conflict or fit in. Maybe it’s coming out as drinking more often, changing habits with food, or turning to other substances. Or you may be in recovery but other parts of your life continue to feel unmanageable, frustrating, or leaving you feeling trapped.
