Hello, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience working with a variety of clients from different backgrounds, nationalities, identities and orientations. I work closely with clients to create personalized goals and am trained in a wide range of issues including: anxiety, panic, depression, PTSD, identity, sexuality, body image, survivors of trauma, adult children of alcoholics, postpartum depression/anxiety, grief/loss, and many others. If you want to feel better, I am here to help!
I offer a warm, non-judgmental, LGBTQ-friendly environment where you feel heard and understood. While I am confident working with a broad range of issues and symptoms, I specialize in healing from trauma. My experiences with EMDR and IFS have demonstrated that people have the potential to heal from anything.
Everyone has times in their life when they could use some help, and I hope I can be that for you. I am a friendly, creative, person that uses humor at times to keep things genuine. Whether this is your first experience with therapy, or you have been in the past, I encourage you to give it a try!
