No one ever said it (life, relationships, career, school) would be easy but should it be this hard? Taking the first step to explore therapy can be challenging but it can be helpful to obtain support during times of transition or difficulty. If you are still unsure, or even if you are familiar with the therapeutic process, meeting me and getting more information about how I work just takes one session, and a consultation costs you nothing.
I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in relationships, women’s mental health, college mental health and culturally relevant therapy approaches. I utilize an online therapy platform to ensure convenience. In practice I focus on your strengths and use evidence based interventions to help move past issues of anxiety, depression, and other challenges.
My therapeutic approach focuses on creating connections and understanding the varying contexts that have been impactful. I have been known to use humor in my practice as well as incorporating solution focused and motivational strategies. I am committed to promoting advocacy, fostering an inclusive environment and the prevention of interpersonal violence.
