My passion is helping families adjust to significant life changes. Whether you are entering into marriage, welcoming a child into your family, or realizing that it is time to refocus on your marriage, my goal is to help you strengthen and grow your family bond. Building self-awareness is vital to any relationship between two adults or parent and child. Creating your own family dynamic and parenting perspective is a unique process for each family. It is healthy to seek support.

My style of therapy would be considered eclectic although I rely heavily on psychodynamic approaches, family systems thinking as well brief solutions focused therapy. I sometimes incorporate the expressive arts into my work with clients (especially writing as healing).

My therapy style is to meet clients where they are and provide a safe space to be their authentic selves through a culturally meaningful lens. I am passionate about supporting clients from all cultural backgrounds to overcome obstacles preventing them from being the best version of themselves. During our sessions, we would explore how your thoughts and past experiences trigger your mood-related symptoms. I believe a strategy for therapy should not be a cookie-cutter approach, therefore, together, we would explore interventions and coping techniques to meet your needs while utilizing your strengths.

I have been working in community mental health and private practice since 2015. Clients who have found working with me helpful include trauma survivors, those suffering from symptoms related to mood and anxiety disorders, and those dealing with stress in romantic and family relationships. My therapy style has been influenced by my experience and training in mindfulness, emotion-focused, and acceptance-based models. I believe that for change and healing to occur, we have to get comfortable in the uncomfortable by accessing our true feelings and emotions.

I obtained my Masters of Social Work with a focus on interpersonal practice from the University of Michigan and have years in diverse settings. I believe we all have another level in us that we can unlock from the lessons we learn through self-exploration. It’s an internal process I have been supporting people with for years. For some, it may be reached by healing from traumatic experiences or learning to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, or other mental health diagnoses. For others, it may be strengthening communication, building or repairing relationships, working through familial issues, or discovering the true you.

I think people are really resourceful. Throughout our lives we create strategies to manage and survive our circumstances. Therapy with me means having the space to be curious and explore your current strategies, understand where and how they developed, and to identify which you’d like to adjust to better align to your current life circumstances and what is important to you. I believe that therapy is just one of many ways a person can work on their healing. However, it is an enormously valuable space, and I’d be honored to share it with you.

I will work hard to make sure you wholeheartedly believe that your mental health diagnosis does not have to define who you are. While I can’t promise that therapy will always be fun and something you look forward to week after week, I do believe therapy has the potential to be transformative for you if you allow it to be. My number one goal is to provide you with a safe space for you to be authentically and unapologetically you, without any filters or judgment. I will always be there to trust you, support you, and gently nudge you (when you need it, and trust me, we all need a little nudge once in a while).

As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and warm space where therapeutic rapport can thrive. I love working with clients to not only work on symptomology, but to create deep and meaningful change at the identity level. I see therapy as a way to attack symptoms while creating space for powerful growth. I believe that the heart, mind, and soul are all connected, and that therapy should focus on this intersectionality as a mechanism for change.
