In my professional practice, I've provided support to individuals grappling with a diverse range of challenges, including eating disorders, anxiety, depression, ADHD, gender, transitioning, sexuality concerns, borderline personality disorder (BPD), and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Drawing upon my personal journey, I intimately understand the overwhelming and isolating nature of our internal struggles. Yet, I firmly believe that life doesn't have to be overshadowed by fear and loneliness. What if we viewed life's challenges as opportunities for profound growth and understanding? What if we discarded societal labels, embracing ourselves with unwavering acceptance and kindness? My passion lies in guiding individuals away from the clutches of suffering and towards the inherent beauty that exists within our lives.

I have dedicated my life to helping people. I spent 25 years as a Personal Trainer, Health Coach and Self Defense instructor. Through my years of experience, I saw the connection between the mental and emotional issues, and how they contributed to our physical health and wellness. I also saw how trauma affected people, including myself. My work with teaching self-defense taught me how powerful learning that you have control over your own safety and that of your loved ones is. You are not powerless. Our mental self-defense is the same. I believe that we can overcome our mental and emotional struggles.

Do you spend most of your day distracted by how your body looks? Obsessing over food choices and fears of weight gain? Blaming yourself for being too much or not enough? Many of us receive damaging messages every day that lead to self-objectification, poor body image, and disordered eating that are normalized in our culture. In a world that teaches us that our bodies are flawed, I encourage you to shift your focus from external fixation to internal peace.

I am a great fit for people who have already had some basic or talk therapy, and are able to sit with and notice their emotions. My therapy techniques help to resolve the emotional triggers and negative beliefs that are still there, even though you've "talked about this in therapy so many times." I have been practicing as a therapist for 23 years. Many problems we experience as adults are rooted in unmet needs or wounds from childhood. These create problems that often stay stuck as adults. I use experiential, deep therapy techniques to bring about resolution and growth.
