I believe that each and every one of us has a truth, and that discussing those truths can be both a powerful and a painful experience. As a therapist, I am honored to help individuals uncover and rediscover what brings fulfillment, meaning, and connection with themselves and others.
I work with individuals, couples, families and groups specializing in the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, sexual health, and relationship issues. I look forward to working with those who seek to cope and heal as they move through the ups and downs of life.
My goal is to create a safe space for individuals, one in which they can explore the thoughts, emotions, and obstacles that prevent them from attaining fulfillment. In collaborating together, the goal is to find a more joyful and meaningful way of life.
