All are welcomed and I will work to create a safe space to allow a client to be their authentic self. Ideally a client will be open and honest about the reason for therapy and allow me to get to know the real them. As a starting point for a new client I will consider their Current Habits, Identify Their Goals, Identify Their Fears and identify what their most immediate needs are.
I specialize in helping individuals who struggle with eating disorders, trauma and abuse, addiction, depression, anxiety and stress, as they continue to navigate everyday challenges. I strongly believe in and cheer for the success of the clients I work with. I’m passionate about what I do and Invested in helping you develop skills needed for lasting changes
Through my own personal experiences I have learned the positive impact of therapy with the right person. My approach is non judgments with a focus on listening to learn how I can bets support you. If you are ready to take that next step I’m happy to go on the journey with you. Looking forward to connecting with you!

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy in my practice. In your first session I will ask questions to learn what has brought you to therapy. Let's collaborate on effective ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we will look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. With PDT we will explore the connection between childhood and current mindset.
