I have experience working with clients with diverse backgrounds, and I work with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief and loss using CBT, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing.
Is past trauma something you think about often, that you find hard to talk about? It would be my honor to hold space for you to help you process all you have been through. I use a humanistic approach to assist clients to identify barriers to feeling fulfilled. We will work together to tailor a treatment plan that is adaptable to your needs based on past history, current symptoms, cultural beliefs, and mental and physical health. The same goals and strategies do not work for everyone, and I am here to help you identify what works best for you in order to heal.

Whatever it is that you are struggling with, I am certain of one thing, it has been beating you up and convincing you that there is no hope. You’re tired of it, you’ve been fighting it tooth and nail and yet it still persists. You are surviving without any tools and my role to you is to give you a hammer. As someone who has ten years experience working with people who struggle with anger, anxiety, relationship issues, and who struggle with conventional therapy, I have found reliable methods to elevate people to where they want to be in life.

Are you tired of feeling so stressed? Maybe you’re exhausted dealing with your relationship issues and worried things will never get better. Maybe you feel overwhelmed and stuck in a cycle of people pleasing-saying yes when you really want to say no yet feel too guilty...or maybe you are unhappy with yourself in some way and are tired of feeling that way. Stress can affect all aspects of your life from relationships, self-esteem, sleep, parenting and even weight. It can keep stuck in unhealthy relationships, keep you from making decision, saying no and speaking up for yourself all of which really just suck.

Childrens' issues such as anxiety, peer conflicts, and adjusting to divorce are areas I have extensive experience with.
Being a Marital & Family Therapist, and coming from a large family myself, I am familiar with the complex and often challenging dynamics that families have. Want those holidays to be more pleasant? I get it. I want to help people to improve their relationships by guiding them to a clearer understanding and acceptance of themselves and others. My experiences with grief and loss have made me well aware of the challenges these present when we lose someone we love. I welcome and enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. Humor plays a large role in both my practice and life.
