Racing thoughts and feelings of self doubt are common until it becomes too much. When it becomes overwhelming do we run or address it head on? Sometimes, when we feel stuck or overwhelmed, we need a little guidance from someone who is unbiased and nonjudgmental. Therapy can help those struggling with friendships, relationships, careers and family issues. I am also a big advocate of work life balance. I am passionate about improving access to quality mental health care by tackling issues of equity and justice within the mental health field.

Hi! Welcome to your first step on your self-awareness journey! I have worked in multiple clinical settings, including but not limited to ACS, homeless shelters, foster care, preventive services, teen pregnancy, outpatient therapy, the LGTBQI community, and juvenile justice. My professional experience has provided me with skills and knowledge of the effects that trauma, family, government systems, bullying, and poverty can have on an individual's day-to-day functioning. I am a firm believer in getting to the root of the problem with an emphasis on a collaborative approach to achieve and maintain long-term goals.

We all have the capacity to make positive changes in our lives, and it is during the time of crisis when the most change can occur. Everyday stressors, relationship conflicts, work and school challenges, loss of a loved one; these events can overwhelm and challenge us in many ways. Adjusting to new experiences is difficult. Depression, anxiety, self doubt and resentment can set in. Therapy helps develop and strenghten our ability to cope, to manage these feelings. It helps us uncover negative patterns and behaviors, but most important it helps bolster our existing strengths and potential for change.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming. It may feel unnatural to confide in a stranger, admit vulnerabilities, or ask for help. You may even feel lost and confused, alone to shoulder the burden of your worries or most painful secrets. Psychotherapy can be a powerful tool, where you can become free from the suffering created by these burdens. Therapy is a space where you begin to explore the questions that escape us on the day-to-day: who am I? where do I find meaning? Is this path right for me? These questions may seem daunting, but you won’t face them alone—together we will take the plunge and, hopefully, find clarity and wellness.

Therapy helps many people struggling with relationships, careers, friendships and family issues. In a comfortable, accepting environment, let me help you regain the happiness you deserve by making connections, developing skills, understanding triggers, and better yet, understanding your life.

Anxiety has hijacked your life. You’re really good at imagining the worst case scenario. Your mind is excellent at anticipating the future, and at replaying things that have already happened. You question whether you are good enough and often feel self-conscious. You overthink everything. And your body buys in to this story – heart racing, shallow breathing, your stomach in knots. All of this worry is overwhelming. It impacts almost every aspect of your life. It prevents you from doing what you want to do, from living the way you want to live. Your life is becoming smaller and smaller … AND YOU’VE HAD ENOUGH.
