You may be feeling ambivalent about therapy, wondering if you're ready to share uncomfortable or painful experiences. As a licensed clinical psychologist, my goal is to work collaboratively to understand these experiences through your lens. This allows for the opportunity to assist in developing new experiences that are meaningful to you. I engage in therapy with adults, couples, and adolescents. Specialties include relational difficulties, panic and anxiety, grief and loss, women's health, infertility, pregnancy, life transitions, trauma, post-traumatic growth and identity concerns.

I have over 20 years of helping students, parents, women, and BIPOC individuals with the unique challenges they face in life.
You are here. You’ve made it. You can breathe. You’ve made it through 100% of your hardest days. Your body is likely holding decades-worth of wounds and wisdom. You are likely tired and might be wondering if you need a change. You are waiting to breathe…to rest…to be. Our work together will focus on your authentic connection to yourself. We will create a space that centers your personal experiences, your family’s story, and your people’s pain and perseverance. A space and time that recognizes how your identities shape how you experience the world. A space and time in which you can be your full self. You are worthy of that.

Psychotherapy is a shared process that requires thoughtful dialog and trust. Successful therapy creates healthy lifestyle changes and fosters physical, emotional, cognitive, relational, spiritual, and financial wellbeing. I will take the time to understand your experience and practice accordingly. I believe the best person to determine whether therapy is working is you. By creating a safe and genuine relationship, we can develop focused goals and strategies that support growth, healing, and inner peace.

While working with me, you'll have a supportive and safe environment to share your stories and your experiences in a supportive, non-judgmental space.

Therapy benefits people in times of acute struggle as well as with the stressors of daily life. It supports those looking to set and reach goals, enhance their current situation, and create positive transformation in their lives. Therapy can help identify what the life we want looks like, ways we can grow, and how we can remove or manage roadblocks that may stand in the way of reaching our full potential. As a therapist I strive to create safe space where we are able to explore the difficulties as well as the joys of life and build on the potential that each of us holds.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-harm, sexual assault, body image, grief, bullying, trauma, or domestic abuse, you might need a safe space to share, to cry, to laugh, to heal, and to learn healthy strategies for coping with life’s challenges. I use a variety of cognitive-behavioral techniques, as well as humility, non-judgment, compassion, humor, and neuro-education as therapeutic tools for helping teens and adults to build a greater sense of self-awareness, trust, acceptance, confidence, and well-being in living their best life.
