Sessions with you and your therapist shouldn’t be dry, or one-way. It should be a relationship, an alliance: after all, you’re sharing part of yourself in a session with a stranger, one that is going to hear your thoughts and personal details, and help you process them. It requires trust, and a proper guide, one that is kind and non-judgmental. It can be an informal conversation that lacks judgment but can give you validation and the ability to process your thoughts in a safe space. Being in a non-judgmental, supportive space can be healing. Therapy is about helping us to solve problems and to think better, do better, feel better.

I am dedicated to connecting with you and helping you work through difficult times. I am available for phone and video sessions currently. The nurturing environment of a therapeutic relationship can deepen your understanding of yourself and teach you new ways to handle life's difficulties. I strive to be compassionate, non-judgmental, genuine and down-to-earth, so you can feel safe and comfortable sharing your deepest feelings.

Challenges will always be part of life, whether it be a global pandemic, conflict in a relationship, or a decision about a new job. Whether you are facing something universal or personal, therapy can help. The therapeutic process allows you to examine your own situation, motivations, and goals, and gives you room to move towards a fulfilling place-acknowledging and building the tools to help you navigate, overcome, and come to peace with all that life has to offer.

I counsel individuals from marginalized communities in the areas of anxiety, depression, sexual abuse and human/sex trafficking and trauma. I am committed to empowering people of color to understand and experience their lives in a more satisfying and meaningful way by supporting them through a practical, cultural, relational and narrative combined approach. I work closely with my clients to help them find meaning in their lives and to increase balance between their values, behaviors, and life circumstances.

My 30-year journey in practice has been dictated by my belief that everyone has a voice that wants to be heard and is capable of overcoming their unique challenges. My love of people and helping them find their true selves has been a passion in my life.

People come to me confronting many issues in their lives, fears of intimacy, difficulty setting or achieving goals at work, marital problems, problems with other family members, grief and loss. I see my job as exploring these issues and finding ways to deal with and resolve them so that the patient is able to find ways to deal with their feelings, find solutions to their problems, and be able to move forward in their life in the most effective and healthy way.

Over the last decade I have had numerous clients come to me with anxiety, depression, mood swings, emotional instability, trauma, suicidal ideations, anger, obsessive compulsive behaviors, and more. They have gained insight, understanding, someone that listens to their situations, and assists them with develops coping skills such as problem solving, calming skills, reframe of thoughts, DBT skills, and positive affirmations.

I will provide you with the safe environment necessary to address conflicts, vulnerabilities and painful life circumstances during the process of psychotherapy. I work with adults, adolescents and couples to address issues related to relationship/family conflicts, employment/education, parenting, single-parenthood and mood disorders. I have a particular interest and expertise in working with mothers and daughters and the issues and conflicts unique to them.

I utilize an integration of evidence-based approaches, empathy, and an understanding of your personal worldview to be of service to clients who desire change and are not afraid to do the work that brings that change about.

Greetings! Have you been thinking about therapy when life gets challenging but then procrastinated in starting? I am here to help you navigate through challenges and life obstacles that life throws at you. I've been a clinician for 17 years and have experience working with children, adolescents and adults in different settings with a wide range of diagnoses. I tailor my therapy for each individual depending on their needs. I have experience in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectal behavioral therapy and trauma focused therapy. I am accepting new clients!

I understand how challenging it can be to develop a trusting relationship with a new therapist. I am extremely patient with my clients and put in a great deal of effort in building a comfortable working relationship while supporting your personal growth and mental health resiliency. My practice provides a warm and friendly space for children (age 6-12), adolescents (12-17), adults (18+) to address wide variety of issues, ranging from depression, anxiety, and trauma to those struggling with relationship challenges and adjustment difficulties.

As a clinically trained Pastoral Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I help people find healing in the midst of painful and paralyzing emotions, injured marriages and relationships, and help restore their hopes and dreams. I have found that with faith, even as small as a mustard seed, there is hope for change and renewal. You can expect to find an open and non-judgmental counselor with creative ideas, evidence-based knowledge, and effective relationship tools. You will be held with respect, understanding, and deep compassion.

Do you tend to be hard on yourself, often feeling exhausted and on edge? Has it been hard to reach out and explore supportive therapy due to the fear of judgment, fear of change, and doubt? These are common reasons for neglecting your mental wellness. However, it is a strength and a valid responsibility to receive emotional support. Highly accomplished individuals who appear to have it all figured out are also in need of emotional support, and it’s not a weakness. I specialize in working with student doctors and other professionals in stressful work cultures who are dealing with burnout, perfectionism, anxiety, and depression.

Throughout therapy, I endeavor to help clients overcome and manage their problems, issues, and situations through coping skills and insight to help them lead healthier/fulfilling lives.
