I've been at this for 5 years now, and I am always fascinated by the infinite variety of ways people can get themselves in and out of trouble. I work with adults to overcome roadblocks, better understand themselves, and otherwise self-actualize. My clinical interests include depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, self-esteem, unwanted substance and behavioral patterns, lifespan growth, among others. I value empowerment highly in the therapeutic process and work well with motivated clients.

People begin seeing a therapist for many reasons--you may be experiencing overwhelming stress, feeling a sense of hopelessness or loss of meaning in your life, living with painful grief, coping with traumatic past or present events, suffering in relationships, or simply feeling "stuck." In our sessions together, you and I will explore your goals, wishes, feelings, and concerns, with the aim of moving toward natural wholeness within yourself and in your relationships with others, in an atmosphere of warmth, authenticity, and acceptance.

“Stuck.” This is a word that often comes up in therapy: feeling stuck with painful feelings, with past traumatic experiences, in unhealthy ways of coping, or in challenging relationship dynamics. When stuck with thoughts of the past or worries about the future, this gets in the way of living in the present. Especially as environments are often invalidating of emotional experiences, getting unstuck is about making room for what we've learned to avoid. Through a close and meaningful relationship, I am passionate about creating a safe environment in which we can get to the bottom of what is keeping you from the life you want to lead.

Are you a teenager or young adult struggling to find your path in life? Are you still figuring out who you are and what you want out of life? You are not alone. Adolescence is a time of incredible transition and identity formation, and can be stressful and confusing. Despite how challenging this time is and that fact that our frontal lobe has not fully developed, we are asked to make some of the most important decisions of our lives (academic, occupational, relational, vocational). Adolescence and young adults often struggle with anxiety, depression, past trauma, substance use, and identity formation.

I am a psychotherapist and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC). I work from a person centered, trauma informed, harm reduction, sex positive based lens. My specialty is working with individuals who struggle with substance use, addiction, co-occurring disorders, anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-harm and family/relationship concerns.

I strive to join with individuals to create a space of support and compassion where healing can begin. I believe we all deserve to experience a life worth living. Whether it is trauma, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, an eating disorder, or another form of mental health challenge that is preventing you from embodying your highest expression of yourself I will work with you to remove barriers and work toward your vision of happiness and contentment.

I strive to bring unconditional positive regard, empathy, and cultural responsiveness to meet you where you are and walk in this journey of discovery, growth, and healing with you. I believe in the power of a strong therapeutic relationship, insight, and therapeutic tools and skills to actualize positive, productive change in your life. I will honor you as the expert of your own life and value your autonomy in counseling direction, decision-making, and taking action. Practicing from a strengths-based, trauma-informed, and client-centered approach, I work with primarily adults.

We are all on a journey that often presents itself in different ways for different people; each person’s life is unique. I love connecting with and seeing my clients reach their goals, sometimes that means being in a space of validation and collaboration, sometimes that means I hold you accountable for doing the work required to change to meet your goals. Regardless, I will be there for you. It doesn’t matter if it is anxiety, depression, addiction or trauma that is getting in the way, I will help you find a way to a better place.

There is tremendous freedom in letting go and liberating yourself from things that create blockages and discontent in your life. Now is the time to look within yourself for increased happiness and joy! My goal when I work with clients is to promote love, connection and harmony both on an individual level and in your relationships with others. I help women recover and heal from narcissistic relationships that they have left. I also support all my clients in joyfully healing from anxiety, depression, life transitions and relationship issues utilizing holistic healing modalities to address every angle of your spirit.

I believe it takes courage to begin the process of change. With that spirit, I try to embody the African Proverb: “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” I believe we can all heal, change and grow, particularly when we have support and love in the process. I feel deeply honored to walk arm in arm in therapy with the clients I see. In both my therapeutic work and personally, I value humor, compassion, and sincerity. The therapist you choose is someone whom you’ve entrusted to build a safe and healing relationship.

***Not taking new clients at this time*** Taking a step towards healing can be difficult. I hope to make this process a bit easier for you. Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time, currently in crisis, need help for something specific that has recently happened, or just value having space to talk through what is on your mind, my intention is to create a safe space for you to do so. Together, we will develop a curiosity about how to effectively make positive changes to assist you in decreasing your current distress and living a more fulfilling life.

I welcome you if you are new to therapy or have a history of benefiting from it. I make it a priority that you feel safe to proceed in therapy at a pace that works for you. Life brings us frequent changes and I hope to guide you through these expected and unexpected adjustments while reminding you to Love Yourz. Me encantaría conocerlo/a si nunca ha tenido terapia or si ya tiene experiencia. Para mi, es muy importante que usted se sienta segura y cómoda en nuestra terapia. La vida nos trae muchos cambios y espero guiarlo/a con estos ajustes esperados e inesperados.

I believe that understanding, accepting, and committing to our values is an integral part of recovery and creating a meaningful life. I aim to provide tools and support that allow individuals to resolve their past and thrive in the present. My professional experience and training is focused on providing advocacy and guidance for adults seeking management and relief from PTSD, substance use concerns, mood and anxiety disorders, and personality disorders.

I am passionate about helping individuals find meaning and purpose in their lives. I offer a holistic and collaborative approach to health and wellness, integrating various techniques to meet the unique needs of my clients. My integrative approach allows me to meet my clients’ needs in the present moment, address underlying issues from their past, help them to find meaning in the choices they have made throughout their lives, and create a life for themselves filled with purpose, joy, and fulfillment. I believe building trusting relationships with my clients is paramount to a healthy therapy experience.
