It’s finally my time to heal, and I’m here to help you do the same. With experience in both the mind and body, I offer unique and effective approaches to counseling. I’m known for providing nurturing, tailored therapeutic services that can be easily integrated into daily life. I see myself as a manufacturer of hope and healing, dedicated to providing culturally competent, holistic, and wellness-focused services that promote transformative healing through change. My approach is client-centered uses a combination of knowledge, early interventions, open communication, somatic experience, and increased awareness to support your journey.
I work with clients on a range of issues, including trauma, anxiety, OCD, depression, mood regulation, grief, personal recovery and growth, and navigating life’s transitions. My treatment approach is individualized, drawing from a variety of techniques such as Somatic Experiencing (SE), Therapy, EMDR, and Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) therapy.
I’m passionate about mental health awareness and regularly speak at schools to emphasize the importance of mental health services. I’ve been happily married to my husband for 20 years, and together, we have six amazing daughters. When I’m not working, I enjoy writing poetry, hiking, and spending quality time with my family. It’s your time,and I’m right here!

Come to me, for Anxiety and OCD, I would normally work with you for 8 to 12 sessions with EMDR, Somatic Experiencing and Trauma relief therapies. For anxiety and OCD we will work with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, the most effective OCD and Anxiety Gold Standard Treatment. Most patients see gradual lifting of symptoms within a few weeks and consistent improvement thereafter.

I often use Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, & CBT in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With this integrated process we will include both body & mind in the healing process using a bottom up approach. Trauma & anxiety happens in the nervous system not in the event. Start healing today!
