Over 20 years of clinical experience working with adolescents, teenagers, and young adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and addiction in various treatment settings. Diversity and multicultural issues are embedded in everything we do and contribute to presenting problems. I am conscious of varying decision-making preferences, the role of family dynamics, stages of life, socioeconomic status, and issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity. As well as the stigma associated with seeking mental health services.

I help adults struggling with high levels of stress, self-worth, and feelings of being "different" than other people.
Are you struggling to see your worth in this world, despite being an overachiever? You never let yourself off the hook at work, home, or both. You're also struggling to figure out how you even feel. There's no time in your busy day to even consider it. Most people look at you and think you have it all together, but on the inside you're screaming. You feel like there is a missing piece, but you just can't put your finger on it. I help motivated, insightful, and highly sensitive individuals and couples, like you, find the healing they have always deserved.

Life can be messy! I would like to help you feel more grounded and supported to navigate the challenges. My interests include working with young adults—maybe you are struggling to adjust to college, working, “adulting,” or having relationship issues. I am also passionate about working with women on maternal wellness and motherhood struggles. I have completed specialized perinatal training through PSI and offer video sessions, which many of my mothers find convenient when juggling family and/or work. Please know that you are not alone. Therapy can help to release that “heaviness” you are carrying around.
