Life can be difficult, and together we can manage challenges in healthy and productive ways with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectic behavior therapy ( DBT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), and other approaches!.
Are you currently living with stress, depression, or anxiety? Are traumatic experiences preventing you from living the life you want to be living? Whether you are setting off on a new path in life, dealing with past trauma, facing relationship issues, or want to improve your overall mental state, my goal is to help you become the version of yourself that you want to be. I believe that mindfulness, self-reflection, and psychoeducation are essential components in improving our relationships with ourselves and those around us.

Reach out if you have questions about a specific type of therapy (CBT, DBT, etc.
As you’re looking for a therapist, it’s important to find someone you feel comfortable opening up to, and maybe even sharing aspects of your life that are hard to discuss. My clients often go there with me quickly; they can tell that I will be warm, supportive, nonjudgmental, and honor their trust. My approach to therapy is multicultural, LGBTQ+ affirming, sex positive, and I have a background working with first generation people. Clients who want to better understand and express their emotions have found therapy with me helpful for learning communication and skills they weren’t taught growing up.
