Much of my practice includes providing treatment for people who suffer from mood disorders like PTSD, depression, OCD, and generalized anxiety.
Finding the right therapist can be a time consuming and costly process. Many people have tried medication management or traditional talk therapy- yet nothing has worked. The question isn't why treatment hasn't worked, but what is stopping or preventing the healing process? What's getting in the way of the natural healing response? If you've been seeking a new way to help manage your symptoms, psychedelic-assisted therapy may be a fit for you. To heal, one needs to be in a healing state, not in an activated stress state. Just because therapy hasn't worked in the past doesn't mean it can't work for you now. Don't give up just yet

Some common matters I can help with: substance misuse, grief, trauma, interpersonal conflict, mood disorders, and personal improvement.
When I meet a new client, I like to acknowledge that therapy is a courageous choice. I think of therapy like walking down a wooded path. While the client is walking the path, the therapist is alongside with skills and knowledge to keep the journey safe and oriented in the direction of the client's desired changes. I consider this an important responsibility, so thank you for considering my services.

This can relate to external changes, like relationships, loss or work stress, but it can also be an internal change, such as deciding to start a recovery path, or choosing to heal trauma.
I value the importance of relational healing, especially for those of us with marginalized identities. Sometimes finding a safe place to express ourselves can be hard. But, I believe that experiencing a validating, secure attachment with a therapist can be truly life-changing.

I specialize in treating adopted and foster children and their families, and those who have experienced trauma.
Trauma can originate from repetitive neglect, abuse, past hurts or one time events; either can be successfully addressed and resolved. Attachment difficulties are often related to early deprivation, abandonment, neglect or abuse; conditions that are often found for kids from "hard places" who have lived in orphanages, and foster care.

I have spent the last seven years working with underserved communities in trauma-informed care and throughout this time have learned the importance of fostering safety, trustworthiness, and transparency during sessions with my clients.
I prefer a humanistic and wholistic approach to therapy – emphasizing relationship building and connecting with my clients on a professional level. I want clients to feel like they can move at their own pace and step out of their comfort zone when they are ready.

I am trained in EMDR which has made a significant impact on my theoretical orientation overall and strengthens my approach to therapy to help individuals overcome and heal from trauma.
Art therapy processes connect the heart, mind, body, and soul to promote healing, becoming, and knowing. Art therapy is for all ages and there is no right or wrong way. Art therapy is unique because it goes beyond traditional talk therapy by promoting your inner voice, inner wisdom, and inner psyche to emerge through a variety of creative techniques incorporating, symbols, pictures, line, shape, color, movement, drama, music, and metaphor. When it is difficult to put words to our thoughts and emotions, art therapy helps bypass these barriers.
