I am a person-centered, trauma-informed, culturally responsive psychotherapist as well as a Registered Nurse with over 25 years’ experience helping individuals and families navigate health and wellness.

ART reduces the impact of symptoms related to stress, trauma, and distressful events and its methods help to change the way stressful images create negative effects in our day to day life.

As a man, you face distinct challenges that often are not discussed. You might feel isolated, wrestling silently with emotions that seem to flare up, leading to anger or other reactions you'd rather not experience.

You may feel as though you're navigating this journey alone, but I'm here to assure you that there's a way forward - a path towards better understanding and healthier responses. Together, my goal is to help discover the real you and build towards a more balanced life.
