Starting from childhood I have been inundated in the therapeutic experience. Over the years, I have had the privilege of collaborating with a diverse array of esteemed professionals, fostering invaluable experiences. I firmly believe in fostering a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients feel genuinely heard and supported. Collaboration is key to our mutual growth, and I am committed to transparency and honesty throughout our journey together. My approach is rooted in authentic empathy, care, and unwavering dedication. While I have developed a specialization over the past year, I remain steadfast in my pursuit of knowledge.

Often, you’ll encounter well-meaning inquiries like “Why not walk away?” or “Have you tried staying positive?” I ask, not why the action, but why the pain? Within the environment I cultivate, your voice resonates and is valued. Together, we journey through the transformative concept: “When there is no enemy within, the enemy outside can do us no harm.”

If you're ready to start this journey of growth and healing, lets connect! Feel free to send me a text message for the fastest response, but an email or phone call will be returned just as soon as I can as well. Not sure if this is the right fit for you? No worries! I offer free 30 minute consultations and encourage any and all questions and inquiries.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma Focused in my practice, but believe the most important modality of all is the client centered one. I assess your circumstances and work collaboratively with you to decide which approach (of the many I practice) that will best accommodate you, your circumstances, and facilitate maximal growth and success.
