I work with teens and adults who would like to address the ways mental health, stress, grief, and/or the many systems we all must navigate can impede on our optimal thriving. We explore ways to be resilient in the face of hardship and turmoil. I can support Folx with identifying if they have mental health symptoms that can be alleviated with treatment. For some, I am a supportive and compassionate sounding board in this increasingly disconnected world. I truly believe that healing and hope are possible for us all, the path forward can be daunting and can only be made better with good support.

Everyone goes through difficult times and needs a little additional support sometimes. I am interested in assisting you in finding ways to meet your personal goals. This is a collaborative, confidential process that can involve learning new coping skills, improving communication skills, increasing motivation for change, working through past trauma or feelings of grief, starting recovery for an addiction, or any of numerous other therapeutic goals. I have been working as a mental health therapist since 2000, and I find it very rewarding to be able to help others enrich their lives.

My life experiences combined with my training give me a compassionate understanding of people and their struggles. Mother of six, one killed in an accident, grandmother of seven, one developmentally delayed. These traumas, though sad, have been great teachers. I use humor and common sense in my own humanistic style.
Improving your sense of humor will help with personal growth, relationships, grief, pain, and your emotional and physical health. Designing Therapeutic Gardens gives me a sense of the cycle of life and I use Healing Horticulture with some of my clients.

If you are consistently anxious, unhappy, dissatisfied or uncomfortable about one or all aspects of your life, you may need a “compass” to help navigate this life journey. The uniqueness of being a person of color or who’s family of origin is from another country, may also add layers that make you feel confused, conflicted and/or unbalanced with family, peers and even your professional life. You will unlearn what is no longer serving you well. I can help guide you to more clarity and understanding of all the intricacies of your narratives, so you can determine the path you want to take to be a better version of you right now.

I AM accepting new telehealth clients. Email or text is the best way to reach me. A global pandemic has changed the way we operate overnight. Most people are finding adjusting to feelings of powerlessness, and ambivalence has taken a toll on their overall well-being, and family. Taking the first steps towards change for ourselves, and our family takes a lot of courage. I am glad you are reading this, and hope you hold how important taking care of your brain, body, and social emotional needs is. Therapy can provide a space that allows you to show up as you are and grow.

My ideal client would be searching for a counselor who is genuine, empathetic, unconditionally holds them in positive regard, and can connect to their experiences. They would have a goal of learning new skills, working on behavioral and cognitive change, and are willing to look at multiple solutions to achieve their goals. They would want to strive for success as they see it and want support in removing any barriers for a better and healthier future.

I believe that individuals possess the power to change, and that it is my role to help you become aware of how to understand and utilize that power. This philosophy of empowerment accepts the individual as the driving force in change. Further, this approach brings about effective long-term results, when individuals discover how to utilize their own inner strengths and gifts rather than having to rely on others for solutions to life's challenging circumstances. I believe empowerment is a gift for life. I look forward to helping clients reach their goals.
