Very often, our lives can begin to overwhelm what we are able to handle on our own. In these times it can be very easy to begin feeling lost, out of control, or simply out of ideas. I have made it my focus to be able to help people not only identify what is happening in these situations, but helping clients develop skills and personal strength which will help them be able to deal with these struggles in an ongoing fashion.

As a therapist, I help my clients focus on holistic healing. My goal is to empower you to be healthy in every aspect of your life, and together, we emphasize areas such as relationships and communication, self-esteem, self-discovery, boundary-setting and people pleasing, goal-setting, and overall health. When you work with me, you can expect a high level of compassionate care and collaboration. I challenge clients to think about life differently, while also encouraging you to implement strategies we discuss to enact powerful and lasting change. Together, we acknowledge room for growth, while also intentionally celebrating progress.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and I want you to know you're not alone. Whether you're dealing with addiction, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or stuck in the heaviness of depression, therapy can be a space to breathe, reflect, and grow. I specialize in working with adults who are navigating addiction, mood challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients come to me feeling disconnected — from themselves, their goals, or the people they care about — and are looking for a way to reconnect and move forward.

After someone you love dies the world changes. You may even wonder how you will continue to live on carrying your grief that can be so heavy. Finding space to make sense of complex feelings such as love, regret, anger and sadness can be a difficult task. Grieving can feel so painful and so lonely. It can also feel messy or too quiet. Grief is a deeply personal experience that is also meant to be shared, so that you may find a path forward on your healing journey.

All people deserve to be valued, no matter their age, ability, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. They should also have the freedom to choose how they experience life. There is no one perfect way to live. People come to therapy with various life experiences and levels of understanding, that is why there is not a one size fits all approach. Your journey is your own. As your therapist, my goal is to provide you with a safe, affirming, and empowering space. This means that I will treat you with unconditional positive regard, congruence and empathy. I believe that every person deserves these things on a human level.

Is your teen struggling with anxiety, ADHD, or feeling left out or “different”?
The In-Between, held at The Center for Empowerment and Resilience, is a fun, therapist-led support group designed to help teens feel seen, understood, and supported as they navigate the ups and downs of adolescence.
Through engaging activities, discussion, and connection, group members build confidence, social skills, and emotional resilience—in a space where they can truly be themselves.
This group is ideal for teens who want to connect with peers, gain coping tools, and learn how to thrive even when their brains feel like “too much” or “not enough.”

Over the past 12+ years, I’ve developed a framework for working with overly active thoughts that occur in anxious and depressed minds. I teach specific ways to free the mind from hidden assumptions that keep us stuck. Once we understand how thinking mind really operates, I teach simple and effective ways to shift into a new, more embodied sense of self. This mode is innate, natural, and is so close and obvious that we do not see it. When pointed out, we can shift into the new orientation. This work falls into the category of simple but not easy. After you've learned it, though, when it takes root, it's yours forever.
