When you're going through seasons of difficulty, day to day life stressors or just need somebody to talk to and process with; that search can seem so difficult! You want to unpack with someone who you can trust, someone who won't judge, someone who truly cares about what you're saying and how you feel and someone that's relatable and will talk back when needed and just hear you in other times. We will work together to set goals and get you to what you feel that you need. Welcome to a fresh start! Let's unpack.
I specialize in couples & family therapy and ADHD. I love to facilitate group work, trauma, substance abuse, concerns specific to urban areas and diverse populations. I won't just sit and nod! I go there with you and if you need me to, I'll take you there.
Therapy is not a last resort, but a vital element in living a life of satisfaction and peace. Struggling in silence does not have to be an option when there are skilled people in place just for you. Reach out and if we don't respond, reach back. Don't give up on yourself because won't give up on you.
