Now accepting new patients Virtually. I specialize in helping individuals and families during the tough times. I have extensive training in the treatment of trauma, OCD, and anxiety related disorders for adults, adolescents, and children.
I provide a person-centered approach that is solution focused. You will be provided with therapy from a wide range of treatment options and be rest assured all treatments are evidence based.
Life is beautiful, challenging, chaotic, and horrifying at times. It is easy to get caught up in our experiences and lose our way. I am here to assist you in overcoming challenges, dealing with stress, and finding peace of mind. Thank you for reviewing my profile and I hope to hear from you soon.
