Taking the first step to seek mental health treatment with the social stigma and stereotypes around the world can be challenging in it's itself. Stigma and stereotypes can cause people to not seek help for fear of the unknown and being judged by others. I offer an open safe supportive environment for clients to discuss their issues with out judgment. My goal is to have an open dialogue with clients about their goals and outcomes in treatment. I tailor therapy to the client's needs and strengths perspective to empower change. I am willing to invest the time and energy to helping my clients meet their needs.

Could your child or teen be happier? Are they struggling with self-worth, school achievement, peer relationships, depression, anxiety, or ADHD? Has the amount of time they use technology such as video gaming or social media become problematic? Life can be challenging, and most of us need help at one time or another. My passion is helping children and their families overcome barriers by empowering them with the skills and strategies to be the best they can be. I offer a safe place to process thoughts and feelings and be heard and understood.

Every person I serve has a unique story. While some clients experience challenges in just one area, most experience difficulty multiple areas (mental health, trauma, loss, addiction), creating a complex, vicious cycle if not all parts are addressed. The circumstances that bring someone to therapy do not come in 'neat little packages.' I enjoy sorting out the pieces with each client, getting to the root of the issue, and offering a combination of evidence-based therapeutic interventions that help clients finally begin to experience relief, and start living a happier, more fulfilled life.

We all want to live peaceful, productive and happy lives. We long for the company of family and friends, the comfort of loving relationships and the security of a safe, peaceful and prosperous world. But the wear and tear of life can create emotional, spiritual and psychological challenges. Much of what we experience in life is influenced by the lenses through which we view our world. I believe that people have all they need to address the problems they face. My task is to help them find those resources, skills, and talents that reside within and apply them in ways that will enable the individual to live their best life.

Depression, anxiety, bad lifestyle habits, inability to forgive oneself, or thinking you do not deserve better in life, can all be too big of a weight to carry alone. Perhaps you want to live a fulfilled life and enjoy the present moment but aren't sure how to get there. The first step is to share your story and invite someone into your world.

Space available in ongoing ZOOM therapy GROUP! Only accepting previous clients for individual therapy. As a seasoned counseling psychologist, I have found that you "can't heal what you don't feel" and that most emotional difficulties stem from difficult experiences and relationships earlier in life. Helping you understand how your past experiences result in current struggles is a pivotal part of the help I offer. Additionally, I will provide you with tools such as mindfulness, and coping strategies, and emotional awareness exercises. The foundation for our work is a compassionate and nonjudgmental therapeutic partnership.

I believe therapy should be a collaborative effort between client and therapist. While I may share some evidenced-based ideas during our sessions, only you are the expert on what works for you. My sessions will generally follow a cognitive behavioral approach, meaning that we will examine, and possibly shift, your thoughts and perspectives on life situations that are causing you enough distress to want to pursue change. Together we will form a plan of action that is the right fit for you at this point in time.
