I believe we are here to discover, learn, and experience as much as possible in this short journey.

And if you are in need of psychiatric medications, I work with a Psychiatrist in the area and you will have access to this service.

Hi! I am a bilingual therapist with over 20 years of experience. In 2000, I finished my Counseling education at Arizona State University. For the first few years, I worked in an in-patient mental health facility. Over time, I was more drawn to outpatient work and began starting my own Private Practice in 2006 called Life Transitions Counseling. Recently, I have spent time traveling the world working as a Military Family Life Counselor, aiding in the mental health care of our service members and their family members.

Life's messy and complicated, and you weren't as prepared as you would have liked for the curveballs. Important relationships in your life have become strained, or you experienced something difficult that you can't seem to find a place for in your mind. You might find yourself struggling with restlessness and irritability. It feels like you're putting on a happy face when you're really just drained, or you're exhausted from having arguments with your loved ones all the time. How your problems express themselves in your life may look different than it might for someone else, and those distinctions are really important.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor providing in-person and telehealth services in Arizona. I strive to help individuals overcome painful past experiences, reverse self-limiting beliefs and improve healthy interpersonal connections. My goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of my clients by providing empathetic and effective therapeutic support. Among the core values that drive my work is the belief in the inherent strength and resilience of every individual. My priority is to create a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment and be proactive in their own healing.

I was trained as a generalist and treat a wide variety of presenting concerns, including depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I have specialized in the treatment of trauma-related disorders, sexual functioning, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. In treating trauma, I am trained in several research-based treatments, such as EMDR, CPT, and more. I also provide sex therapy services to address common issues, such as desire discrepancy and sexual shame and can integrate these specialties to address sexuality post-trauma. At this time I can also offer integration services following ketamine treatments or personal use of psychedelics.

Utilizing techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we will work together to identify and transform your unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, fostering a healthier mindset and enabling you to take control of your emotional well-being. I also utilize interventions from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Psychodynamic and Person-Centered therapy.

Starting the healing process is challenging and takes courage. Within all of us is a drive or desire to become whole, happy and connected to our self and our world. I see the importance of integrating all parts and aspects of our Self and becoming more whole and complete human beings. This journey into wholeness in the realization of our potential, underpins our personal journey of transformation and healing. This philosophy is at the core of my approach.

The grace, acceptance, and strength of my clients inspires me and continually shapes my practice. My particular interests and specialties tend to fall within women’s issues, trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, addiction and relationship Issues. The belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health care and a chance to be the best version of themselves informs every element of my work.

The path towards healing may involve deepening the mind-body connection. We hold onto stress in the smallest of ways. By brining awareness to our subconscious patterns, we can begin to healing. If you find yourself struggling with grief/loss, depression, trauma, anxiety, life transitions, substance use, or any everyday stressor you have come to the right place. My hope is to provide a safe space and collaborative treatment in which we can explore what it is that maybe interfering with your daily life. I offer a relational and non-judgmental approach to help process life's ups and downs.
