I am a clinician focused on both deep emotions and practical coping. My therapy style is to collaborate with Clients to find out what works for you the best. It usually arises naturally from our body as body is the container for whatever we've been through. I believe psychotherapy can foster our personal growth and empower us to reclaim our capability to nurture and take care ourselves. I am specialized to work on perfectionism, professionalism, depression, anxiety, panic attack, trauma, stress, autistic spectrum, emotional regulation, relationship, family of origin, and cultural/racial issues.

All around us the world is shifting. Maybe at one point it all made sense: your feelings, sensations, and reactions (even the dark and heightened ones) felt known and even comforting. But now you are looking for a new way to be and a different understanding – a path forward and a way to endure your struggle. If you are someone who believes that each of us know our own wounds, that we possess a strong inner wisdom, and that we have the ability to access the latent potential to grow and change – or, you want to believe – you will find a good fit with me and my therapeutic offerings.

Sometimes in life we all need a “companion on the journey,” someone to partner with us and help make sense of our experience, ease our pain, and support our goals. As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe environment where individuals can identify their strengths, recognize unhelpful patterns, and live into their goals. Working from an integrative, client-centered approach, I seek to support individuals wherever they are on their journey and my approach is holistic, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I value cultural humility and look forward to working with people of all backgrounds, identities, and walks of life.

Life can be exhausting, can’t it? It can feel like no matter how hard you push yourself you just can’t get out of the sludge you’ve been walking through for years. We live in a fast-paced world that doesn’t allow for much patience with ourselves. It can feel impossible to take time for your own mental health. You’re taking the first step though. That’s huge! While we may still be struggling with challenging or unsafe environments in our lives, counseling allows us a space to step away from the world, strip off the façade, and work on growing and healing.

Are you ready to discover a deeper understanding of yourself? I guide clients beyond the day-to-day interactions to explore the inner workings of the psyche and identify the underlying root of their distress. Instead of treating the symptoms, I aim to identify the cause. This invites the potential for deep inner healing and sustained transformation. Together, we shine a light on the parts that have been hidden or fragmented due to trauma and facilitate integration to become more whole. While our shadow, or subconscious, may hold our greatest fears, it is also the source of our greatest gifts. Who you are in the process of becoming?
