Listening to your needs non-judgmentally and supporting you in building hope, purpose, and holistic healing of both the mind and body is my consistent approach as a therapist. I am passionate about working with individuals most impacted by various forms of oppression, adversity, and exposure to trauma.

There are many situations that can influence a person to seek therapy services. Maybe you are going through a difficult transition, such as grief, loss, or divorce. Maybe you are experiencing signs and symptoms of anxiety or depression and are feeling nervous, worried, or sad. Regardless of the life transition or the type of symptoms you are struggling with, therapy can help. My goal is to understand what has led to this point in time, what this experience has been like for you, and what direction in life you want to go. Working together, we’ll determine what obstacles are getting in the way of moving forward and what steps can be

Are you struggling with sexual expression, issues with obtaining/maintaining erection, painful intercourse, lack of drive, coming out later in life, adjusting to bodily changes after childbirth, menopause or changes related to aging or chronic pain/injury?

We all deserve to experience enjoyable sex and be in touch with our sexual selves.

Have you hit a point in your life where you feel like you’re spinning your wheels in a rut on the side of the road while the rest of life is flying past you? Would you like to feel that you have a handle on how to manage your life, rather than just fighting through the days? I work with the stress and anxiety that has touched so many lives, especially in this past year. I also work with people struggling with difficulties in their relationships, experiencing loss or loneliness, having trouble meeting goals, or a history of trauma. By listening to your life experiences and roadblocks we will begin to develop a big picture and a plan.

So, I encourage you to choose the hard that has the most hope! Take care of yourself!

My biggest therapeutic success is to incorporate things in my therapy session such as playing games, playing sports, dancing, art, team building, executive functioning, self-esteem checks, charades, role-plays, and music therapy that are so enjoyable to the children that it makes them feel more open and honest to share about the things they want to work on, what they need to work on, but gets them excited to come back each week and learn the skills that they want and need, but have fun while doing it.

You are looking for something. Relationship? Connection? A life worth living? Maybe you don't even know. How about a better relationship with yourself? Whatever it is, counseling can help. I use an eclectic approach because there is no one size fits all in trying to find what will work for you. I provide my clients with a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their story and find their strengths to work on what's not right. We are all capable of feeling good about who we are and to reach our highest potential. Never stop short at finding yours.

Making the decision to reach out for help when we’re struggling emotionally can be challenging and even a little scary. For most of us, however, there comes a time when the difficulties we are facing gives us the courage to begin the search for change and healing. Finding the right therapist can be a crucial aspect of this journey. The therapist you select needs to be someone who helps you feel connected, accepted and understood. Clients find me to be warm, compassionate and non-judgmental while creating an effective therapeutic environment.
