I enjoy helping my clients empower themselves to live the lives they wish to live, develop self-compassion, & embrace peace, frequently with the help of my therapy dog, Rockstar. I believe many stressful behaviors (e.g., isolation, eating disorders) begin as a way to cope, when we feel we have little control. Even if certain behaviors are now causing you distress, it is amazing that you empowered yourself to manage times in your life when you didn't know how else manage.

Tu palabra es tu magia is Spanish for "Your word is your magic." I am a firm believer that our words carry immense transformative and healing power. Our words create our thoughts and our thoughts impact our behavior. If we can get to a place where we are able to control the type of intrusive thoughts we have, we can control the type of emotions we feel and change our behavior. You may find yourself struggling to quiet the chatter in your mind telling you you are worthless or not capable, or maybe it keeps re-playing fears of the future or haunting memories from the past. Let's help you retrain the brain and take charge of your joy!

I work with women navigating early adulthood and who are motivated to explore how their past impacts their present - including anxiety, self-esteem, and relationship struggles. My approach is not to focus solely on the symptoms that are being presented, but to understand each person as a unique individual, navigating the complexity that comes with being human. I believe we all have our own unique set of gifts and innate strengths, and therapy is a space that promotes growth in discovering those strengths that lie within.

We all can sometimes lose our way in a world that is overwhelming. Traumatic experiences and addiction can leave us feeling disconnected, trapped and alone.

I have also worked in an inpatient & outpatient setting for substance abuse and addictive behaviors. I enjoy working in an individual and/or group setting. I hold a space where compassion, guidance, belonging and growth happen.
