Starting your therapy journey can be scary and confusing. As a therapist, I believe the therapeutic relationship is nothing without a human connection. It’s important for us to feel safe and respected in spaces where we are being vulnerable. I am passionate about working collaboratively to create a warm, inviting space in which you feel heard and understood. I aim to help you identify and use the strengths you already possess, to help you create a life you love and are proud of. I utilize Compassion-Focused Therapy as well as Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you become an active participant in your life.

I am here to work with you regarding the things in life where you feel "stuck." You may be stuck for a variety of reasons, including past or current trauma, chronic illness, relationship or work-related stressors, or caring for children or your aging parents. You might be in a heterosexual marriage and realize that you are LGBTQ, and you are scared, wondering how to move forward in a way that is sensitive to your family, and is true to your identity. I have both personal and professional experience with this issue, and I am happy to help you navigate through it.

I have experience spanning across clinical, community-based, and hospital environments. I'm dedicated to assisting those grappling mental health challenges, immigration trauma, and family of origin stress.

I operate from a person-centered approach, which means that I start with what is top of mind for you and help reach the goals that YOU have identified. Every session may look different. Some days you may need to process through a difficult situation at work, while other days we may review concrete skills to help you manage your anxiety, and other days we may spend time exploring your childhood relationships. I want our time together to be most helpful for you, however that may look.

I acknowledge the bravery it takes to step into a therapy session, whether in person or online, and commit to the process. That's why I'm deeply committed to integrating the personal and professional aspects of therapy, using humor and authenticity to foster a safe and empowering environment. I am deeply committed to continuously examining my biases, schemas, identities, and experiences to understand how these facets of my personhood create strengths and blind spots, and I value when clients are willing to share in that experience themselves.

I specialize in working with people to reach their own potential. I have specialization in traumas; especially sexual and domestic violence. I understand that each client comes with their own history and abilities. I do not believe there is any set treatment plan for everyone and work to individualize each person's treatment. I understand that each person will experience their history, events, and self care differently.

Do you often feel stuck or lost in life? Maybe you find it difficult to understand yourself or other people, or how to be in healthy, mutual relationships. Perhaps you have survived trauma and are wondering “what does life look like now?” I work with individuals who exist within many systems and use our shared understanding of culture and intersectionality; oppressive power structures (like patriarchy, cis- and heterosexism, racism and white supremacy, ableism, etc.,); relational and family history; as well as our position within these systems to examine how they have impacted you, your sense of self, community, and relationships.

The foundation of successful change is a willingness to see things clearly - to be honest with ourselves about our thoughts, feelings, intentions, and actions. In order to do this, we need both courage and compassion that come from the heart. Therapy is about opening our eyes to our emotional needs and the patterns we've developed to get those needs met. We examine what is and isn't working, with compassion and understanding that all feelings and behaviors serve a purpose.

It is common for people to feel stuck in their lives and experience hardship. Clients often have a hunch that they are avoiding painful feelings, which leads to challenges in relationships and day-to-day coping. While reaching out for help can be daunting, clients often describe the therapy process to be an empowering way to gain direction in their lives and experience significant relief. I am a licensed clinical psychologist and received my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Louisville. I provide warm, yet active therapy, so clients can get the most out of the therapy experience and live a better life.
