I believe that every client has the potential for health and wellness regardless their situation. I have dealt with many issues including, mood, thoughts, anxiety, attention, eating, gender, sexuality, spirituality, substance use, and compulsive behaviors. I want to meet you where you are. While they may not be ready to make immediate changes, planting the seeds of health and wellness are my ultimate goals. I work with adults and youth at least 11 years old.
I am trained in many mindfulness-based models such as DBT and ACT, as well as CBT, motivational interviewing, and modifying behaviors.
I am working on transferring my credentials from previous employers. I have been paneled with various insurance agencies and will make updates as I'm approved. Please check your insurance for out-of-network benefits as well.

Trauma is the root cause of many mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, sexual health, relationship, and communication. A majority of my training and experience has been with LGBTQIA individuals working on various stages of their lives and identities. I am also certified and have experience working with substance and process addictions.

Mindfulness is the core of many modalities, including CBT, DBT, and ACT. I bring a lot of experience from the various fields of study and knowledge I have had throughout my life. I believe therapy is holistic and I integrate physical as well as mental approaches.
