I am a Mental Health Counselor, who has a Masters Degree in Applied Behavioral Psychology and Advanced Certification in Mental Health Counseling. I offer my clients psychotherapy with an integrative approach, utilizing different theoretical frameworks to individualize a therapeutic plan for every person, group, and couple I work with. I primarily focus on CBT, Person-Centered, DBT, Relational, Psychodynamic, mindfulness, and meditation, but offer other techniques listed below. ​ My own philosophy is based on a holistic approach, so I do not always focus on diagnoses or pathology. However, I do recognize that sometimes it is needed.

Life can feel nonstop and overwhelming. There is always something to do, respond to, or catch up on. Many people end up feeling either buried in responsibilities or avoiding them just to get a break—neither brings real relief, and the cycle continues. Over time, this stress starts to affect your mood, energy, and relationships. You may feel more irritable, drained, or less patient with others. Even simple tasks can start to feel heavy, and motivation can drop. For many, this has quietly become their normal. Does this sound like you? If so, are you ready to stop this cycle of self-abuse?

You may feel weighed down by expectations, anxious, or stuck in self-doubt. Maybe you learned early on to hide your needs, perform to feel loved, or carry more than you should. Over time, this can leave you quietly wondering: Am I ever enough? You’re not looking for someone to fix you or assign endless homework—you want a therapist who can slow down with you, who won’t rush your healing, and who can hold space for confusion, silence, or pain. Most of all, you want to feel genuinely seen and accepted as you are.
