Ideally, clients benefit most when we explore the issues to be worked on and when the client is flexible in allowing me to tailor treatment modalities to specific needs. At times we engage in psychodynamic psychotherapy and at times we implement cognitive behavioral interventions to make positive changes in the client's perspective, behaviors and relationships.

“ Anxiety, uncertainty, comparison, failure, depression and vulnerability” - most of us spend our lives avoiding these words. Then one day, we are depressed - not understanding how we got there. We become too small because we think that we don’t have control over these thoughts and how they derail our daily lives. The good news is that there is a way to free ourselves from the fear, grief, despair, and anxiety. Yes, we struggle throughout our lives, but we can build the courage to face our vulnerabilities. Let’s find a way together to be free - I can walk with you and help you become the person you’ve wanted to be for a long time

I believe therapy should be a safe, non-bias, judge free space where you can be seen and heard regardless of what you are going through. In our sessions together, we can challenge and explore where we currently are in life, and how to manage, cope and overcome obstacles with full transparency. With experience working with LGBTQ+, BIPOC, polyamorous, and sex positive, community dealing with various mental health issues and life stressors, together we can set goals and build our toolbox to get to our ideal, higher, authentic self.

Life is a maze with many twists and turns. Your choices and actions will determine the next steps in life depending on which path you decide to take. In order to find a deeper meaning to understand who you are, what you want or how to build healthy relationships, it is important to have a therapist that is empathetic and understanding. A therapist who will meet you at your starting point and guide you towards fulfilling your journey.

It's so hard putting out a perfect image especially when you stress yourself all of the time. It looks like you have it all together. You went to college, excel at work, and have friends. But you feel so alone. Inside you are battling with some hard shit but they don't notice. You are the one that they come to for help and it's so easy helping them sort through their lives and giving advice. You are so tired of helping others and wish that someone would just notice you. But you keep being the rock because there is a little tiny voice that fears the phone calls would stop. After all, will they be there if they know the real you?

Life can be overwhelming, but there is no need to embark on your journey alone. As a licensed mental health counselor, my goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to examine the obstacles you are facing so that we can explore how to move forward. Some of the issues I help with include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self-esteem, trauma, addictive behavior, and grief/loss.
