I have grown a passion and drive to support individuals and couples in navigating depression, anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship issues, and LGBTQIA issues.
I believe that our present day emotions, thoughts, and behaviors are linked to experiences from our past, and those events not only impact our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, but they also impact how we view ourselves and our relationships today. It’s my goal to help you grow in your self-esteem and self-acceptance, and to create the language and thought process to believe in yourself, advocate for yourself, and to be optimistic towards yourself. My ideal client is someone who is motivated and ready to challenge their current way of thinking as it relates to life and themselves as a whole.

The ideal client is a person who is open to learning, determined to self-improve and committed to the therapeutic relationship.
The first session is a meet and greet and it's also an opportunity to learn about your history and what makes up your personality. I will look at your family history, marital status and relationship style and communication style and medical background. Then it will be starting to look at treatment goals and collaborating on a treatment plan.
