I am a Meaning-Centered counselor in Phoenix, Arizona with over 8 years of experience working in behavioral health. Today, more people come into therapy expressing feelings of emptiness and wondering does life have any meaning? What really makes life worth living? Is it all just meaningless suffering?

It is an honor and a privilege to help people find themselves. I help people navigate roadblocks to authenticity and to their heart's desire. I have been practicing as a therapist for 23 years. My approach is to listen intently and ask questions until we have a deep understanding of the problems you are experiencing and why. Many problems we experience as adults are rooted in unmet needs or wounds from childhood. These create problems that keep us stuck as adults. I use experiential, deep therapy techniques to bring about resolution and growth, rather than superficial, cookie-cutter approaches out of a manual.

As a queer, person of color, I believe in creating a non-judgmental and culturally sensitive space to assist clients in creating a life that they love. Due to the pandemic, many of us have had more time for reflection than we might have had in the past. Maybe this time of reflection has caused you to question your identity, gender or sexuality. Exploring and integrating your gender or sexuality can feel overwhelming, especially in a world that can be hostile to LGBT/Queer people, but you do not have to do it alone. Seeking help takes courage. You are courageous.

Choosing a therapist can be tough, and helping you get started is a passion of mine, even if not with me. In my experience, the difference between feeling stuck and feeling free is profound and essential. For my part, I can share my experience and an overview of therapy paths and effective care patterns, or we can just talk. The paths that worked for me were active, engaging, and experiential - we do things more than just talk about them. What if you could shift your life and perspective, to get beyond coping all the way to stability and confidence? Those places are real and available, let's go there together.

I help people who are struggling with anxiety or depression and are hard on themselves. They feel a ton of pressure to do everything well and never let others down, and sometimes that pressure feels crushing. As a result, they feel either “amped up” and “stressed out” (anxious) or “exhausted” and “defeated” (depressed). Maybe a little bit of both!
