Starting therapy can feel overwhelming and finding the right therapist can be even harder. I’m here to help! I have dedicated the past 9 years working with clients to create a safe and supportive environment to explore their thoughts and feelings, while developing healthy coping skills. I have experience working with a wide range of ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds, specializing in Depression, Anxiety, Pre and Postpartum, Child Development/Behavioral Issues, Anger Management, Decision Making, ADHD/OCD, Intrusive Thoughts, Self-esteem, Concrete Functioning, Chronic Illness, Adjustment to End of Life & Relationship/Family Issues.
I utilize evidence-based practices and strength-based approach to help my clients feel empowered and able to successfully reach their therapeutic goals. I enter each working relationship with the understanding that you, the client, are the expert of your own life and my role is to help guide you, not to lead you, toward your desired goals.
If you are unsure whether I will be a good fit, please feel free to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. I look forward to hearing from you and how I can help you reach your potential for positive change.
