Do you desire to be your whole and authentic self? Let's connect! Do feelings of wrath, anxiety, despair, and/or excessive stress weigh you down? Is there trouble in paradise? You can still have faith. Human beings are social creatures. Talking to a professional who cares can be the catalyst for positive, long-lasting change. My hope in working with you is that together we will be able to overcome whatever is holding you back from becoming the kind of person, spouse, parent, and/or professional that you want to be.
My unique therapeutic approach is integrative, educational and challenging, and tailored to meet your needs and support you in achieving the life you desire and deserve. I work to validate your emotions, target negative cognitions, highlight behavioral reactions and promote change through discovering inner strengths and developing greater self-awareness.
Working collaboratively we will reduce problems from past patterns and gain insight into deeper levels of yourself to enhance your future. My varied background in counseling and research will help you through techniques that are accepting, emotionally guiding, culturally sensitive, strengths based, motivational, and solution focused.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy integrated with Somatic Psychotherapy in my practice. In your first session, we will explore the reasons behind coming to therapy and then decide through the assessments what will be the most beneficial treatment interventions for you. In using somatic psychotherapy, we will focus on where trauma became stuck and how to mitigate that.
