Everyone experiences emotional pain that comes by virtue of living life. We face transitions, are met with difficulties, or experience stressors that bring frustration, hurt, and uncertainty. As a therapist, my role is to support you in identifying ways to use your strengths and utilize resources you have to find unique and tailored solutions aligned with your values. I will also provide perspective through situations with strong belief that every person has purpose, passion, and potential awaiting discovery. I believe in honoring the emotional vulnerability of each client by fostering a space of safety and connection.

I love helping people see new possibilities and opportunities in their life when previously they had faced difficulties. I find it meaningful to be able to support a client or a family in the process of trying new approaches to overcome the barriers they have to what matters. I also love learning about how to make our brains "work" better in our relationships, families, schools, workplaces, and other important social areas!

Does your child or teen lack motivation to achieve, have unresolved emotional issues, deal with bullying and are unable to speak up, have difficulty expressing their feelings in an appropriate way, exhibit high-risk behaviors including sexual promiscuity, drug use or other self-harm, or simply need guidance through parental separation, divorce, loss or any demanding life situation? I have helped many children and teens overcome the obstacles to achieving success in behavior modification, emotional stability, academics and social relationships. I specialize in treating at-risk children and teens that suffer from behavioral/emotional issues that prevent healthy development.

Insight is the true catalyst for change. It’s that “a-ha moment” or change of heart that shifts your perspective and transforms your life. My approach is all about creating an atmosphere where powerful moments of insight are more likely to occur. Instead of focusing on coping with negative emotions or learning complex strategies, my aim is to share a simple, yet profound understanding that leads to lasting change. Together, we’ll unlock the clarity, peace of mind, and enjoyment that are already within you.
