As a therapist, I strive to break the barriers of traditional therapy by going beyond the mind and helping facilitate healing for the body as well.

I am an out-of-the box therapist that operates from a holistic healing standpoint, who believes that everyone can and deserves to heal.

My mission as an IFS-trained therapist is to help you understand and heal the different parts of yourself that may be in conflict or pain. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, I am here to support you. IFS stands for Internal Family Systems. It is a model that views each person as having a system of sub-personalities that have their own thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and motivations. Some of your parts may be wounded by past experiences and carry negative emotions such as anger, fear, shame, or guilt. Other parts may try to protect you from those emotions by avoiding, pleasing, or numbing.

Life is challenging. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed and hopeless. Often, this leads us to feel lonely, sad, angry, and many other uncomfortable feelings. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

I have more than 15 years clinical experience working with individuals, groups, families, and couples looking for guidance and support navigating life's challenges as well as serious mental illnesses.
