My journey into this field began with a deep curiosity about human relationships and a desire to understand the underlying factors that contribute to mental health struggles. This passion has driven me to pursue a career where I can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those I work with. I’ve dedicated my career to helping individuals and families navigate the complex challenges of addiction and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. I view therapy as a collaborative process where we work together to understand the challenges you are facing.

Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, and trauma? Do you experience difficulties managing family and relationship issues? I believe that healing happens when we pay attention to all the parts that make us whole—our mind, body, and soul. The subconscious mind controls most of our reality and choices, so building awareness and active presence can improve the quality of daily living and assist in not only surviving but thriving through life. As an intuitive & holistic therapist, I will assist you in strengthening your inner psyche and developing new tools to manage negative feelings and thoughts.

When we are exposed to trauma at an early age, it can seriously impact how we feel about ourselves and our relationships with others. Trauma can also profoundly affect whether we feel this is a safe world and can contribute to depression, anxiety, and relational/familial issues. My practice is from a strengths-based, trauma-informed perspective with a non-judgmental framework. I aim to understand clients’ internal responses and to provide more options for emotional regulation and problem-solving.
