I am passionate about being a Marriage and Family Therapist and receive immense fulfillment from the successes of my clients. Being able to witness my clients take control of their lives and experience increased happiness is inspiring. I have supported clients in decreasing depression, anxiety, and codependency, as well as, increasing relationship satisfaction, motivation, and self-confidence.

Feeling anxious, lost, keyed up and on edge? Having trouble integrating the new norms of the world? Have you been feeling the craziness of the world and need some support navigating the emotional roller coaster and finding balance? Are you looking for a different kind of therapy? Something that will speak to your soul and light you up? Would you like to tap into your innate power to attract emotional balance, success, wealth and healthy relationships?

My approach to psychotherapy is holistic in nature--recognizing the mind-body connection. When appropriate, I collaborate with integrative medicine practitioners in order to give my clients the best care possible. I have found that this integrative approach provides much faster, effective healing. I am eager and energized to help my clients to feel better quickly. I will help you to clarify what you'd like to improve about your life and give you effective strategies to build toward greater well-being.

The best project you will ever work on is YOU (or your relationships). There is HOPE and everyone has a story. I am here to hear yours, your families, relationships or child's.

I work with couples, individuals and troubled teens/children. My approach is strength-based, providing support and feedback to my clients in order to help gain insight towards improving your life.

Are you ready to release the wounds and burdens of your past? Are you looking for a more joyous and purposeful life? I believe you enter therapy already equipped for the transformation you seek.

Are you struggling in this journey called life? Does every day feel like it is an uphill battle? My passion is to help others understand that neither past nor present choices and experiences define who they are nor dictate their future rather they help shape who we are. Each and every day is an opportunity for growth and change. We can allow our experiences to be a boulder that sinks us or fuel that propels us towards the future we want for ourselves. There is new life, a better life and amazing opportunities for everyone. So while the journey may be tough and you may struggle, the view from the top is more than worth it!

I love seeing people grow and overcome obstacles that previously seemed insurmountable! I work with couples and adult individuals. You may seek help with your partner when you feel like you're stuck in a loop where the harder you try to work things out, the more you wind up hurting each other. You may come on your own if you've hit a rough patch and need help regaining your equilibrium. My job, as I see it, is to join you and help you unpack your thoughts and feelings with an eye toward building a brighter future.

You’re confused, overwhelmed and feeling lost. You have so much pressure to be who others see you as that you aren’t sure who you are. You feel like you don’t fit in anywhere. You have questions about your roles, sexuality, gender or just life in general. You crave a sense of peace and belonging. You don’t feel safe sharing what you really think and feel for fear of what others’ will think of you. You wonder if anyone can see through you and that thought petrifies you. Sometimes you wonder if you can keep going.

Are you ready to make personal change in order to have a more fulfilling life? Is COVID-19 causing you additional anxiety and stress? Life is a journey where we encounter many transitions such as marriage, divorce, career changes, loss and parenthood.

My goal is to help families and individuals in crisis. I have 3 areas of passion. First, I love working with children, teenagers, and their parents. Children were the reason I decided to seek a career in psychology. My second area of passion is working with my clients to rewire their brains and change emotional reactions. I integrate mindfulness, coping and self-soothing skills, and other tools in both individual adult and adolescent therapy. Finally, I enjoy neuropsychological and psychological assessments, viewing each one as a puzzle and I put my full effort into understanding the final outcome and treatment recommendations.
