Every story has moments of transition—times when the path forward feels uncertain, and the past weighs heavily on the present. If you’re struggling with anxiety, grief, or trauma, it can feel like you're standing at a threshold, unsure whether to step into the unknown or retreat to what you know. But the beauty of these spaces between who you were and who you want to be, is that they hold great power for transformation. My role is to walk with you as you explore your narrative, uncover the truths hidden within, and find a way through the fog.

With over 20 years experience as a School Social Worker, I recognized a growing need for students and families to have access to quality outpatient counseling and community resources. Throughout my career, I often saw individuals struggle to find a therapist they truly connected with or face barriers to receiveing the support they needed. That inspired me to become the change I wanted to see by extending my services beyond the school setting. My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, and culturally responsive space where children, adolescents and adults feel seen, heard and empowered.

Feeling stressed, burned out, overwhelmed? Are your emotions driving the bus? Feel like you have lost your aim, your motivation? Your life may look successful on the surface, but internally things feel heavy, disconnected, or harder to manage than they should. This is more common than you think. You do not have to manage this alone. The goal of therapy shouldn't be just a place to vent (although that can be helpful at times) it is a place to understand what isn't working, aim toward a life you want to have, and work with your therapist to create a realistic plan to make it happen. Are you ready to make that change?

You’re the overachiever, the strong one, the one who puts out fires, and keeps going in a crisis. Maybe you’re even more comfortable in a crisis than those quiet moments in between. Trauma can do that. It rewires our brain for survival so the crisis is when we best perform. But crisis mode, PTSD, it doesn’t work well for everything else. It can show up as constant exhaustion, anxiety spirals, difficulty finding joy, or just not feeling like yourself.
