I work with individuals and couples expressing a range of mental health needs, from depression and anxiety, to trauma, healthy relationships, and general self-development. I believe that building the therapeutic relationship helps to create a space where you can share your story while experimenting with new perspectives and behaviors while working toward a new understanding of yourself and a healthier sense of well-being. It is important to me to understand a person on a holistic level, including various identities that an individual may hold, life influences and experiences, multicultural factors, and one's own values and beliefs.

It's not a sales pitch when I say that I genuinely believe we all could benefit from seeing a therapist. It can be difficult to reach out for help when we need it, especially if we have been down the road of asking for help and not getting the help we need. Life simply is too difficult to go at it alone and therapy is a great way to begin the process of tackling what life throws at us head on. So whether you struggle with trauma, balancing life, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, etc. let's take the first steps into pursuing a healthier, growth oriented life.

Mental illness does not discriminate; everyone can struggle with challenges that are unique to them, such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues and many more. It takes a lot of courage to seek therapy; it involves facing our shortcomings and accepting that we need help. It is a journey of self-discovery and growth, and it is an opportunity to learn more about ourselves and grow to be the person we were always made to be. This journey is a vulnerable journey, and therapy can serve as a safe space and supportive environment to help you reach your goals and lead fulfilling lives.

As a therapist I work with people seeking new beginnings, change, and healing.

I encourage individuals and couples to start where they are and let therapy guide the next steps.

Welcome, we all get stuck sometimes and the last thing we need is judgment and lack of compassion! I get it!

I am a Catholic-Christian counselor; yet allow the client to determine how much, if any, faith to incorporate in sessions without projecting my own beliefs onto others.

I primarily provide two services: relationship counseling and sex therapy.

For individual clients, I work with people hoping to explore their sexual and reproductive life, and gain insight about their values and how they influence their sexuality.
