My approach is nonjudgemental and client-centered. I am passionate about helping others grow through mental health and realize that life can be challenging and creating change can be difficult. I have been providing individuals with mental health treatment for 8 years and find my clinical strength is with individuals who struggle with thinking pattern errors, anxiety, depression, anger, parenting, and marriage discourse. I focus a lot on thinking patterns, emotions, behaviors, and their connections as well as building insight and awareness into thoughts and behaviors that create barriers in life or sustain challenges.

Life doesn't always go the way we planned in our heads. Sometimes we are thrown curveballs, presented with a transition we didn't choose, or maybe notice that stress has caught up to us. If you find you could use a space to think out loud, gain insight, develop strategies to move forward and reset your focus I would love to offer that to you.

Know that each of us deserves the space to show up authentically and without judgment, to be truly seen and heard. You are welcome here; you and all the parts that make you uniquely you, including aspects that shine bright and ones hidden away, longing for attention. Two truths that inspire my work are that healing happens together & that you already have innate wisdom for wellbeing.

I know... reaching out for therapy is difficult. The thought of a confiding in a complete stranger can seem weird. But I have high hopes that this will be the start of something beautiful. If you are an individual who feels empowered to help calm your anxieties, lift your spirits, and get rid of anything standing in the way of you living your best life, then you're in the right place.

Life can be tough and struggling through challenges alone can be even tougher. You may be experiencing high levels of stress, depression or anxiety. You may even be suffering from panic attacks. There is hope, however, and EMDR therapy can help identify unwanted patterns, triggers and behaviors in order to create positive change. We do not have to be defined by our negative experiences or past traumas. We all have the power within us to make positive changes in our lives and I want to help you do just that! I am also a certified Bikram Yoga instructor and truly believe in the importance of the Mind/Body connection.

Life is full of challenges. Some challenges inspire you to rise to new heights, while others feel insurmountable and leave you wondering where to go next. These struggles can lead to pain, frustration, sadness, anger, and resentment. The good news is that you don’t have to face these difficulties alone. I view therapy as a partnership designed to help you navigate life’s complexities on the path to wholeness. For many, this means addressing issues from the past, understanding emotions, or managing life's transitions. Others may need support around grief or relationship issues.
