Sometimes life can feel overwhelming and frustrating. Stress in our lives can come from many different sources: communication difficulties, parenting children, unrealistic expectations at work, academic struggles. These challenges can become confusing and depressing if left in isolation. By addressing these issues in a safe, trusting counseling environment many of these stressors can be reduced.

Are you not feeling like yourself? Have you been feeling “stuck”, have you experienced emotional or relational trauma, struggle with Depression, or engage in self-criticism; I can help. As a therapist, I created a space where you can heal and just BE. While in therapy, you will overcome trauma, manage your depression/ anxiety, walk away from self-criticism and lean towards self-compassion and self-love. While my specialties include trauma and depression, I enjoy working with millennial women of color who experience anxiety, find it hard to manage life transitions, stress, and workplace trauma. I also offer LCSW Supervision.

I have experience in treating those with anxiety disorders, and those in with sexual, internet, gaming, and alcohol and drug addictions.. I also have considerable experience in diagnosing and treating adult ADHD. As a licensed private pilot, I have successfully helped clients overcome a fear of flying.

Wellness has been defined as a way of life oriented toward optimal health and well-being in which body, mind, and spirit are integrated to live more fully within the human and natural community. Ideally, it is the optimum state of health and well-being that each individual is capable of achieving. When working together in counseling, I perceive one’s thoughts are related to their feelings and reactions to events, not the events themselves. Counseling sessions are individualized to meet the unique needs of each client.

I believe that each one of us has unique life circumstances and that the counseling process should meet your specific needs. My style is welcoming, straightforward and compassionate. My focus is on identifying your strengths and helping you to recognize your potential. I employ a client-centered approach in a collaborative effort with you to foster hope and the positive change that you desire. I utilize an eclectic evidence based modality tailored to your individual needs. I work with individual adults. Sat and Sun appts available. I can schedule you within a week. Telehealth only.

Helping people is what I do. People come to me because their thoughts and emotions are getting in the way of their ability to succeed. My integrated therapeutic approach is designed to help you overcome your difficulties, gain valuable insight and learn to cope with life’s difficulties so that you can make lasting changes in your life. Whether you are looking to build a relationship, feel comfortable, share your problems, identify solutions, and put solutions into action – our conversations can help feel like you’re moving forward confidently.

My PURPOSE is to utilize my spiritual, academic, and personal experiences to empower and enrich the lives of others, through a counseling or coaching relationships

My ideal client is one who wants to building a collaborative relationship that will help to foster change. I believe that most of the work of therapy happens in between sessions, so my clients will benefit if they are willing to practice the things that we agree will be helpful. I am less focused on diagnoses than beliefs, feelings, and behaviors that are amenable to change. I am hoping that my clients have decided that they are willing to be vulnerable at this point in their lives and that they are open to having me participate in their journey toward a more effective life strategy.
