Welcome! I am open and affirming to all adults. My office is physically challenged accessible, as I believe all should have equal opportunities. I practice Holistic Psychotherapy, helping you connect your past events to your present day behaviors, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helping you turn your negative thoughts into positive ones, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy, which helps you accept the present moment for what it is. Talk Therapy is also important to purge our feelings in a safe space, while learning strategies. I also offer Spiritual counseling for those struggling in the awakening process.

Congratulations on taking a step towards change and feeling better! I have had the honor of working with individuals, couples and families in residential and outpatient settings and have witnessed people change and reach unique and individualized goals. I use a variety of techniques such as experiential, CBT, Solution-Focused, Motivational Interviewing, Gestalt and psychoeducational modalities. I use EMDR to help clients recover from traumatic, disturbing and shame-based memories. I help clients find the motivation to change their unsatisfying patterns by empowering them to identify, express and prioritize needs and to stay focused on their goals.

I am a licensed professional counselor, and board certified art therapist. I use a person-centered approach to my practice, incorporating psychotherapy and art therapy, to personalize sessions to meet my client's specific needs and goals. I believe in a therapeutic relationship built on trust, compassion, and non-judgement. Art therapy allows for exploration of creative process which helps to promote wellness, increase insight, foster resilience, and develop new coping skills. No previous art experience is required.

Would you like to improve your relationships? Your job? Or other life situations?

Please feel free to contact me and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Look forward to meeting you.

I enjoy working with clients who feel stuck and want to live a happier and more fulfilled life. I believe that human beings have an innate ability to overcome the effects of trauma. Through therapy, we can heal pain and enjoy a sense of aliveness and wholeness. It takes alot of courage to choose to go into therapy and I applaud those who do. We release negative thoughts and beliefs about ourselves that we have carried and learn to replace them with positive and affirming ones.

**Currently not accepting new clients** Life is not easy and in this increasingly disconnected society, we often feel alone even when living among the people that we love. As an experienced therapist, I offer a connection built on honesty, authenticity, and empathy. By developing and fostering this connection, we can face your pain together while also uncovering and challenging blocks that hinder your own ability to heal yourself. I use a variety of modalities to help each person meet his or her goals, though EMDR and Interpersonal Process Therapy are my most common approaches to treatment.

I am dedicated to helping my clients get to the root of their problems and develop effective coping skills for different life situations, triggers and traumas. Person-centered therapy has always been my personal approach and I enjoy focusing on improving my client’s wellbeing through compassionate and knowledgeable support. Everyone deserves to be heard and have their feelings validated no matter the severity of the problem.

I specialize in working with youth, adolescents, adults and families struggling with an array of mental health needs and relational impairments related to trauma, anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, addiction, anger/aggression, family discord, defiance/non-compliance, interpersonal conflict, life transitions, self-esteem, motivation, and spirituality. I am committed to providing my clients with a safe space to explore their inner experience(s) and the impact it has on their current functioning and overall well-being.
