You feel like you could be doing better and you have some areas in your life that you could improve in. You want to learn effective strategies and skills, break the cycles you are in, make deep insights, and improve your life and the relationship you have with yourself and others. In session, we will explore your sense of self, relationships, personal aspirations, life stressors, goals and more. We will uncover your patterns of behavior and create a deeper understanding of who you are and what you value. Let's talk about the therapy process and make sure I set the stage so that you can understand how I can best support you.
My unique combination of three master’s degrees supports my skillset of critical thinking, problem-solving, empathy, and emotional intelligence. My style can be best described as being supportive, directive, playful, and challenging. I value your time and energy and so I cater our sessions to be most productive, efficient, and supportive for you.
I will support you as you expand your level of self-awareness, enrich your relationships, and increase your personal growth. Therapy is an investment in your worth and potential. I will also create a safe space for you to be vulnerable (or learn how to be). Thank you for reading about me, I look forward to meeting you soon & seeing how we can work together!

I am guided by trauma-informed psychodynamic and systemic therapy work. I believe that acknowledging life's challenges initiates growth and delving into their origins elevates awareness and control. You can achieve significant change through understanding. I want you to be equipped with tangible skills and tools so that you can feel in control of your life and emotional experiences.
