Stressed? Overwhelmed? Exhausted? Sad? This is your mind's way of letting you know that something is not working. So often we find ourselves pushing through difficulties without taking time to understand or heal from them. Through therapy, I help folks slow down and process where they are at and what they have been through. Together we identify negative thought patterns and behaviors that are keeping you stuck. We process current and past experiences and move through avoidance. This allows you to gain new insights, function at higher levels and release stressors rather than ignoring them.

Life can be challenging at times, especially when struggling mentally and emotionally. I have experience working with a diverse population, and providing individual, family, and couples counseling. I am currently in the process of obtaining my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C), and I am trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). I approach all my clients with compassion and respect, helping them to feel validated and empowered.

My ideal client is one who's experience in Life has left them with a sense of disconnection. This sense is deep seated, as it has begun to shape their existence in the world; a world that has rapidly moved away from one where vulnerability is practiced to one where isolation feels emotionally safer. This person is challenged to begin healing because the conditions in their life feel unescapable, ongoing; chronic. They struggle feeling purposeful and in creating a HEALTHY sense of self. They've spent more time coping, and providing LIFE to this symptomatic person they've Become and almost no LFE to to ONE they were BORN to be.

My focus as a clinician is to guide people of all backgrounds to a place of peace and acceptance.
