I have extensive experience in psychodynamic therapy, trauma informed care, gestalt therapy, mindfulness based therapy, and existential therapy.
As a Woman of Color, I'm very passionate and dedicated towards promoting wellness, healing and recovery. Living in our fast paced world, we often find ourselves feeling empty, depleted, irritable and disconnected. We begin to question life, our existence, and our purpose. My approach is holistic and mindfulness based. I have extensive experience working with diverse communities of color. This has allowed me to understand the mind body connection and how our environments contribute to our dysfunction. I am a bilingual, bi-cultural licensed therapist and graduated from Mt. St. Mary's University.

I have over 20 years’ experience in evidence-based practices and patient focused existential traditions.
As the global pandemic has shown us, sometimes life becomes overwhelming and uncontrollable. During these times it may be best to talk with someone outside of your community of family, friends or co-workers. A warm hearted professional to lend a moment of support and guidance. I share with clients in deciding how best to approach the issues, with the intent of addressing both the current distressing symptoms and long-standing patterns of behavior that are getting in the way of a thriving life. My practice is telehealth-based, and I accept direct pay (some prefer for privacy) as well as most PPO plans as an Out of Network provider.

I employ an integrated approach to therapy, drawing on a variety of techniques to help my clients achieve the goals we set in session: narrative, IFS, CBT and existential to name a few.
Do you feel like you are at a crossroads and wondering "where do I go from here?" It can be daunting to explore the places that scare you but deciding to do so is often the road to liberation. I work with individuals and couples who are stuck and looking for a way forward. Relationships, both with ourselves and with others, can be complex and we often become complacent and used to "the way things are." If you are here, you probably have a sense that something needs to change. I encourage you to trust yourself and give me call. I offer a free phone consultation.

I can help with feelings of emotional pain, isolation, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, overthinking, existential questioning, loss of a loved one, career issues, trauma, heartache, people-pleasing, issues of identity, gender, and sexuality, substance use and recovery, and relationship, family, and friendship struggles.
It can be hard to live in this world, so there are many good reasons to look for support right now. Sometimes, it is possible to figure things out on your own, and sometimes, it takes the help of another. The beginning of therapy is a time to work together and find a rhythm to the relationship, one of comfort and emotional safety. This is an important place to start. From there it becomes possible to think about the issues that are impacting you, in a process of reflection and uncovering that will look a little different for everyone.

I use a trauma focused lens and incorporate modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal theory, Mindfulness, and Existential theory into my practice.
Many clients I work with struggle to connect to their authentic self and inherent value and I assist in reconnection through grace, compassion and honesty. I believe healing happens when you engage in healing acts and therapy is a healing act. I know how difficult it can be to see yourself and the world clearly when dealing with symptoms of anxiety, depression, complex trauma and substance use. I believe I can guide you to create space between you and these symptoms so you can feel safe, connected and increase your capacity to experience all of life.

My father always said “aging comes with serious side effects”. While he meant it as a joke, his words were poetic and true. Whether we are navigating our own experience with aging, or caring for others, issues related to this experience can dominate our lives, and cause significant distress.I come to this work, enriched with life experiences that have given me perspective, compassion, and empathy.

Existential Therapists
How does existential therapy work?
Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.
Is existential therapy evidence-based?
Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.
How long does existential therapy last?
The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is existential therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
