Do you often feel anxious, depressed, or "stuck" and want to feel happier and more fulfilled, but are unsure how? Perhaps your relationships are suffering, or you are underperforming at work. Maybe you just had a major life change, like a new baby or a divorce, and you need help adjusting to your new life. Perhaps you suffered a loss or another traumatic experience currently, or in your past, that you haven't yet worked through. This is where I come in. I create a judgement-free, safe space to work on these issues and help you move past them.

If you are finding yourself impacted by hurt and harm from your past, I am here to help. Our experiences can weigh heavily on our present relationships with family, partners, and children, diminish our sense of thriving, and impact our faith and spirituality. Often we are paying the debt of generations before us to benefit the generations to come. Healing is a powerful, though sometimes painful process, but you don’t have to do this alone. Reaching out for support is the first courageous step in this investment.

Are you struggling with emotional challenges, seeking guidance, or striving for personal growth? Look no further, as a compassionate and experienced psychologist, I am here to support you on your unique journey towards healing and self-discovery. With a deep understanding of the complexities of the human mind, I specialize in addressing a wide range of issues, from anxiety and depression to relationship difficulties and self-esteem concerns. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where we can explore your innermost thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

When I was younger, I didn’t know how to communicate my feelings and felt frustrated by potential mischaracterization. After I had my first child, I had a difficult time navigating through postpartum depression. I started asking questions and researching mental health while finding virtual support groups. Through this process, I realized that I had s never been alone in my personal issues. When I was pregnant with my second child, I went back to school for social work to become a mental health professional to serve people in my community to help navigate through anxiety, depression, grief, and intergenerational traumas.

I work with clients in a caring and compassionate manner, and I tailor the treatment to fit their needs and goals. I became a therapist because I want to help people who are struggling to change their lives.You are the most important part of your treatment - it needs to relate to your life in a way that works for you. I will challenge you to overcome the challenges you see in your life with support and positive feedback. My approach is working collaboratively toward a happier life for you by helping you make positive changes, including increasing your self-awareness and those barriers that have come between you and your goals

I am committed in helping you heal and grow.

Children don't come with a set of instructions! Neither does parenting. No matter how much we try, sometimes we sit there, feeling guilty, looking for places to hide from the eyes of judgment, and wondering if there is something we can do better. It gets tough trying to figure out who to listen to anymore, or even wonder if our child's behavior is "normal." Let alone finding the time and energy to juggle it all. Or maybe we just want a little support! But as parents, one thing we do know for a fact, is that we LOVE our little ones and we are always trying to do what is best for them, no matter what that looks like!
