As a licensed clinical psychologist, I provide psychotherapy to adults and couples facing a wide range of issues. My approach to individual therapy integrates mindfulness- and acceptance-based techniques to guide people toward a healthier relationship with emotional distress and problematic behavior. Cultivation of psychological insight and awareness is used as a springboard for growth, empowerment, and the pursuit of balance and value-driven action.

My areas of specialization include Anxiety Depression, Trauma, Impulse Control, Relationships/Trust Issues, Self-Esteem/Shame Issues, Sexual Issues including Sexual Addiction/Compulsions, Internet Compulsions, Sexual Abuse, Anger Management, Stress Management, Grief and Loss issues, as well as men and women issues.
Therapy should be a space where people feel safe enough to be themselves without fear of judgment. Reaching out is not always easy, and I strive to create an environment where clients feel heard, respected, and genuinely understood. I work alongside clients to help them better understand the experiences, emotions, and patterns that may be impacting their lives, while developing new skills. Every person brings a unique story, and I value meeting clients where they are emotionally, without pressure or criticism. My goal is to help you build insight, resilience, and confidence while creating lasting change.

You've carried a lot — maybe for longer than you can remember. The weight of past wounds, the grip of substances that once felt like relief, the exhaustion of moving through a world that hasn't always seen you fully. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in addiction and recovery, trauma and PTSD, and racial identity. I believe healing isn't one-size-fits-all, and that your culture, your story, and your lived experience deserve a central place in this work. Here, all of you is welcome.

As a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, I am uniquely suited to provide holistic care. A psychoanalytic therapy approach offers a highly effective form of treatment through a comprehensive and nuanced framework for working with and addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, identity struggles, low self-esteem, a lostness around a sense of self, struggles in your connections to other people, and feelings of meaninglessness. If advisable, I can also provide careful expert medication management. Together, we will embark on a collaborative exploration, delving into your unique background and personal influences as we work towards healing.

I feel the most important aspect of counseling is the relationship between the counselor and client. If we are able to create a genuine relationship that is grounded in authenticity and trust, we can further your understanding of yourself, your experiences, and how you engage with the world. I aim to help people by cultivating a safe environment where thoughts and emotions can be deeply felt, and where we can discover what steps you can take in your life that better align with your values. Through counseling, we can learn how to acknowledge thoughts, feelings, and past experiences without having them overwhelm us or define us.

At times in our lives, sex and intimacy may not be a top priority. You might have a hard time expressing your desires, or knowing what those desires are in the first place! Does that resonate with you? If you’re in a relationship rut or you’ve simply never learned that sex is for YOUR pleasure, you might be feeling disconnected from your body. The root of these challenges is that sex is a skill, and society doesn’t teach us to hone in on our sexy, sensual side for our own benefit. When we struggle with sex or intimacy, we tend to go on struggling until it becomes overwhelming and we can’t avoid it any longer. Now, it’s time to grow.
