Caring, inclusive, multicultural approach to individual, couple and family needs. Through the use of Internal Family Systems and wellness based therapy, supporting people as they heal. I specialize in supporting those with anxiety, life events and trauma. Additional support for perinatal mood disorders (postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD and panic), and those with ADHD. Meeting people were they are at with a non-judgmental approach.

Because no two patients are alike, therapy should be tailored to each patient, rather than trying to treat everyone with the same theoretical approach. I believe that a therapist’s job is to guide the patient as they learn to change the behaviors and thinking styles that may have once been helpful, but are now getting in their way. Most importantly, I believe it is a therapist's job to teach their patients the skills necessary to eventually function independent of their therapist, allowing them to eventually leave therapy instead of being stuck with having weekly sessions for the rest of their lives!
