I help patients find hope in adversity. I explore a patient's need for external validation. I explore old negative motivators used to inspire achievement-based goals. I teach self-care & self-regulating practices. I model healthy attunement, explore conflict avoidant behaviors, & healthy dependency. Being a highly sensitive person is not a weakness but an empathic strength. I explore guilt, shame inadequacy & fear that causes "analysis paralysis." I analyze unhealthy habits. I teach clients to build trust & reconnect with a traumatic body that no longer trusts.
I am an empath, highly sensitive person, highly educated and experienced therapist. Building a therapeutic bond of trust is the first element of treatment. I start our sessions with psycho-education, emotional support and mixed modalities to address each of your concerns and throughout treatment I elevate your progress based on your personal needs.
I am here to be a guide but you are the expert of your treatment. I am direct. I tell you what I think and welcome open dialogue. I am candid, transparent, strengths-based and empowering. My goal is to provide compassionate, quality and cost-effective counseling services to cisgendered and LGBTQIA2+ people alike.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
