The process of healing and growth is a journey that requires partnership and support. Life is hard and I believe that counseling is a process by which we work together to identify and work through difficult life challenges that limit self-awareness and personal growth. My primary goal as your counselor is to create a safe, accepting, and comfortable environment where we work collaboratively to meet your needs and goals.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Therapist and I provide both individual and family therapies. I have experience working with a diverse range of ages from early childhood through adolescence, and adulthood. When working with children I suggest and encourage parental involvement, so that the child has consistent support outside of sessions. I will provide parents and families with therapeutic interventions, resources, education, and support.

I once read that, “Strength does not come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming things that you thought you couldn’t.” No one should have to go through life’s obstacles alone. As your therapist, I am here to support you and help you achieve your goals. I pride myself in offering a safe and nonjudgmental environment for growth and healing. It’s my desire that each client leaves my office feeling heard and seen. Together, we will come up with a plan to navigate any concerns or problems that are facing.

I work with families seeking support for children and teens struggling with anxiety, behavior issues, or family conflict. Parents often come to me feeling exhausted by arguments, worried about their child's wellbeing, or navigating transitions like divorce or relocation. Many families I help are bilingual or bicultural and appreciate therapy that respects their heritage. They're looking for practical strategies to improve communication, set effective boundaries, and rebuild family connections. Above all, they want their child to develop resilience and emotional skills to thrive through life's challenges.

When you are overwhelmed, navigating a big change, recovering from a trauma, or deep in the pain of grief, it’s common to feel alone. You’re taking a courageous step by seeking support. Stepping into therapy often means facing things we’ve been avoiding or haven’t fully processed. It’s natural to feel anxious about what might come up. You don’t have to “fix” everything all at once, and you don’t have to have it all figured out. It’s okay to feel lost, scared, or unsure. You are worthy of that healing, and I’m here to help you get there.
