Welcome! As your therapist, I prioritize providing a warm and non-judgmental space to process life experiences. I work from a client-centered foundation where genuineness and warmth are central to healing. I enjoy working with adolescents, couples, and adult individuals who want to face and work through difficult problems to enhance their relationships. I have a special interest in working through life transitions and intergenerational trauma. However, one of my greatest passions is empowering people who struggle with the stigma surrounding mental health and support services, particularly regarding their families and culture.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. But our challenges become more difficult if we aren't managing our thoughts and emotions skillfully. A key to personal growth is learning to detach from the unhelpful stories our mind tells us, so we can move forward on the things we value. My goal is to help you lead a richer, more meaningful life-one rooted in the values most important to you. No matter how serious your issues, there are steps you can take to gain a sense of control and wholeness.

Engaging in therapy is a courageous, empowering choice. I believe the foundations of a healing, productive therapeutic relationship are trust, authenticity, and collaboration. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgemental space to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to build insight into and change painful or unskillful patterns. I seek to help you illuminate stories you tell yourself about your emotional experiences and to shift narratives that aren’t serving you to build a joyful, connected, fulfilling life. My approach is eclectic and strengths-based, drawing from an array of modalities tailored to your unique needs and goals.

As James Baldwin famously said, "not everything that has been faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed unless faced", I also offer you the following poem: "When we feel safe, anything is possible. We become unstoppable. Because we have a firm ground to launch and a safe ground to land. We can then stand. Voice ourselves, show ourselves. Life becomes a dance."

My training would be defined as "Cognitive Behavioral Therapy" but I engage in general therapy. This means that I will work with my clients to meet them where they are and use tools, interventions and approaches that respect their person and strives to align with who they are. I am here for the client and make it a point to engage on a humanistic level. I am not a therapist who sits in a chair and asks "how does that make you feel?" I am a therapist who wants to actively help you identify your goal(s) and come up with a plan for you to reach them. I will not waste your time and I am invested as much as you are.

Thank you for exploring my webpage. I realize that doing so is a significant step and I hope that this information helps guide you in seeking the support you may need. I have been practicing in the field of clinical and neuropsychology for 20 years. Many individuals with whom I work are experiencing heightened stress, anxiety or depression in response to life circumstances, such as accidents/injuries, health issues, parenting challenges, and other provocative life situations. I offer a supportive environment to explore the ways in which such challenges may be motivating my clients to feel and behave as they do.
