I am a Clinical Psychologist specializing in the treatment of PTSD, substance use/addiction issues, and anxiety. I also work with clients experiencing insomnia, depression, bipolar disorder, panic disorder, chronic pain, and life issues such as personal growth and relationship problems. I take a trauma-informed approach to treatment and believe in treating the whole person rather than simply focusing on symptom management. My commitment to a strength-based approach to treatment guides my work.

It’s hard to be human. There are no manuals on how to deal with our thoughts and emotions. Sitting with vulnerability can be scary and uncomfortable. As a Client-Centered clinician I plan to meet you in the here and now and help get you to where you want to be in a holistically happy and healthy manner. We all could use a bit of guidance, and at times, a push in the right direction.

Feeling stuck, immobilized and unable to change your life? What's holding you back from being your best self? Through a behavioral lens we work together to identify the behaviors and patterns that are holding you back from your goals and systematically relearn healthy patterns and coping mechanisms that will empower you to make the best decisions for yourself, your relationships or your family. I work from a person centered approach creating a safe space where we work together to help determine your needs and goals.

Have you been impacted by something in your life that has caused pain such as loss, abuse, or a traumatic event? Have you used adverse coping techniques that resulted in negative outcomes or repeated patterns? Do you see these patterns reappear by choices made in your life and you feel you want to make a change? I am here to offer a nonjudgmental and unconditional foundation to help support you. Every experience is unique to the individual and the effects of these experiences must be processed through one's own strengths. Together we will find the peace that you seek to ultimately bring you to a place of well-being.

Welcome to my therapeutic haven! I love working with adults who are discovering who they are, where they fit in, and with whom. Whether you’re struggling with relationships, self-worth, breaking generational cycles, or healing teenage or childhood wounds, therapy is a fantastic place to gain insights into your emotions and behaviors, develop more helpful coping strategies, and discover what brings you contentment and peace.

Are you struggling with mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, or trauma. Have you experienced past traumas, or going through a difficult life transition, or are you struggling with relationships? Whatever the issue may be, we want to recognize and acknowledge that we can help to address your challenges. Our group of talented therapists are skilled at providing you with emotional support, incorporating modalities such as Ketamine, mindfulness, and utilizing a client centered approach. We will also work on helping to develop tools and techniques tailored to your needs, which will help improve your overall well-being.

Are you feeling weighed down by the stresses of life or grappling with past experiences that continue to affect your present? Are you yearning for a therapeutic space characterized by empathy, understanding, and a focus on your individual needs? Whether you're seeking support as an individual, a couple, or a family, I am committed to working collaboratively with you to foster healing, resilience, and deeper connections. I specialize in supporting those who have experienced trauma, suffer from anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, and my fellow members of the LQBTQ+ community.

As a mental health therapist I work from a client centered focus. I support and guide you in managing your mental health concerns. You maybe experiencing symptoms such as depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, or relationship issues. If you have a desire to understand and address the root causes of your life challenges, and you are willing to engage in the therapeutic process to make positive changes in your life then I'd love to work with you. I use a non-judgmental, empathetic therapeutic approach. I work to provide a safe and supportive environment to explore your thoughts and feelings, which in turn helps you grow as human being.

All sessions are by telehealth only. People come to therapy for a variety of reasons. I help people who are experiencing problems in daily living, difficulty in navigating life transitions, relationship and family discord, or who struggle with symptoms of anxiety, depression or loss. Therapy is about removing obstacles and developing the capacity for self-acceptance, self- expression, and joy. I will collaborate with you to set your goals and uncover new strategies for a happier life.
