The human experience can be challenging even without the impacts of depression, anxiety, shame, and external pressures. Through all the things you can’t control, your pain doesn't have to turn into long-term suffering if you seek help to heal, practice self discovery, and learn skills to carry you along life’s journey. You already have what it takes to create the life you want! My compassionate, down to earth, and authentic therapeutic style allows for an environment that offers safety and encourages change and growth.
I have experience working with children, families, adolescents, and adults in a variety of settings including in-home therapy, outpatient therapy, intensive care, and adoption. I use evidence based treatments as an informed way to approach change during sessions. I believe in the importance of a comprehensive treatment approach to meet your individual needs.
My practice specializes in helping those that are experiencing trauma and attachment disruption, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, racial identity difficulties, a variety of women's issues, and anxiety disorders. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT Prolonged Exposure for PTSD, and Exposure Therapy for anxiety disorders.
