Exploring your life in partnership with a dedicated therapist can be a remarkable gift to yourself. I can help you gain insight into unhelpful patterns and difficulties in your life, and support you in realizing your hopes and goals. I view symptoms not merely as problems that need to be “fixed”; instead I seek to help you uncover their deeper causes. Problems then become opportunities for renewal and positive change. I believe a trusting therapeutic relationship is at the foundation of a successful therapeutic outcome. My goal is to provide a safe and collaborative environment in which lasting change and healing become possible.

I work with diverse populations of adults, teens, and couples, utilizing modalities such as EMDR, CBT, and Imago Therapy.
Life presents us with a multitude of challenges, each carrying the power to either diminish our spirit or bolster our resilience. My aim is to join you in navigating these pivotal moments that can enrich your life's narrative. Through this process, we’ll learn how to navigate life’s unpredictable waves, fostering not just survival, but a profound sense of peace and purpose in life. As we untangle the threads of worry, we’ll make space to focus on what truly matters: nurturing your self-worth, forging deeper connections with loved ones, and embracing a life that resonates with meaning and fulfillment.

Being a parent is hard work. There are so many unexpected challenges and emotions that arise that can feel overwhelming and isolating. I work with families who are struggling with parenting challenges, child sleep issues, pregnancy and/or birth trauma and postpartum mothers and fathers and couples who are adjusting to life as a family. I believe in a holistic approach where we focus on the past and present and how it connects to our current life as well as our mind, body and spirit.

I work with individuals struggling with anxiety and mood disorders, relationship issues, self-esteem, life direction, trauma, and issues surrounding sex and/or gender.
Making meaningful changes in life can be challenging. We tend to stick to what’s familiar, sometimes leaving us stuck in places we no longer want to be. The path towards healing and growth can sometimes be overwhelming and confusing. I believe that often, the answer is already within us, but we may need guidance to view life through a new lens. I’d like to walk with you on your journey of expansion. I am here to help you access your potential and develop the tools you need to have more fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.

Would you like to have a better relationship with yourself and with your body? I take a depth-oriented approach to helping you resolve early trauma, release shame, and develop a more secure way of relating to yourself and to others. The more deeply you understand yourself, the more you will be empowered to make healthier choices and live more present in the moment. I believe it is possible to connect to the joy in your life. As we work together in therapy, I will help you connect with your emotions, so they stop affecting your body, behavior, and relationships.

You deserve the support you need. When we are struggling with anxiety, PTSD, personal or relationship transitions, life can feel especially difficult. Experiences of trauma, changes in our identity and relationships, legal or learning challenges can sometimes be overwhelming--even long after they happen. Often, beliefs that once provided guidance or comfort change, leaving us feel even more lost at sea. Yet deep within, we all have access to a feeling of our aliveness that can help us navigate these rough spots. Our work offers you safety and caring to bolster your strengths, recover your joy, and find your inner knowing once again.

I work with adults who experience depression, anxiety disorders (agoraphobia, panic disorder, social anxiety, specific phobias), OCD, relationship challenges or loss, phase-of-life stressors, procrastination, & LGBTQ or Race related trauma.
Compared to many other psychologists, my therapy style may be more goal oriented, assertive, and with a stronger focus on observing and measuring therapeutic progress over longer term emotional processing. My approach is based on my belief that we do have the power to create healthy emotions & dismantle unwanted emotions. When meeting with you, I'll want to understand how your ongoing circumstances, emotions, behaviors, or thoughts impact the short term as well as the overall outcomes in your life. I base my treatment on evidenced-based inventions, eastern & wellness perspectives, and a conscious awareness approach.

Maybe, you’ve struggled to shape your identity. You’ve challenged societal expectations, rejected toxic dynamics, and forged a path that truly reflects who you are. But despite your progress, there’s still a sense of incompleteness. There's a feeling that maybe people don’t understand you, and there’s a continuous journey of self-discovery and education, which can be exhausting. Sometimes, it feels like you’re just going through the motions, struggling to maintain hope in the face of life’s unpredictability. It might be time to consider having a mental health partner by your side, someone to navigate these challenges with you.
