Life throws all kinds of challenges our way, and sometimes we need support from a professional to assist in looking at things from a different perspective. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and a registered Art Therapist, I offer more than a traditional talk therapy experience by using cutting-edge integrative methods of the creative art process, mindful-based interventions, and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to support trauma recovery and address the root of anxiety, self-esteem issues, limiting beliefs, emotional instabilities, and unhelpful behavioral patterns.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, warm, and interactive, rooted in building a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients through a culturally-informed and person-centered lens. I have over 18 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults and specialize in the most effective treatments for depression, anxiety, and trauma disorders.
I’m passionate about empowering individuals to move beyond their worries and fears and create meaningful and lasting change. I honor that each person’s journey is unique and that psychotherapy is not a one-size-fits-all. Therefore, I strive to create a safe healing environment that is unique and personalized to meet your individual needs.
