It feels hopeless. It is intimidating. It may even feel insurmountable. It is the pain of life, and it is real. But, what if I told you it is not hopeless? That you hold the key to making things better. Seeking help can feel equally daunting, but it is the first step of breaking through the negative cloud of despair. I meet my clients where they are in their life’s journey and I consider myself a “fellow traveler.” I join them it that journey to help them gain insight, to provide perspective, and to collaborate and determine the best course of treatment to regain the direction of their destination.

Imagine getting to experience feelings, of authentic self-love & getting to achieve what you really desire.

Life can often cause us to question who we are, where we fit in, and how to navigate its toughest moments. Perhaps you’re ready to begin working through the challenging traumatic experiences that are a part of your story and you are here seeking support. Perhaps you are struggling with finding your place in spaces that may question who you are based on your racial/cultural identity or your sexuality; or you’re simply exhausted with carrying physical, emotional, or sexually traumatic wounds and you would like a safe space to process these concerns. Your experiences are your truths but you can find support to make your future yours.

Everyone has a story. It is through those shared stories that we can find empowerment. Recalling challenging times helps you to identify your own potential, resilience, and determination. My goal as a therapist is to develop an environment of mutual trust and respect to allow individuals who face challenges or difficult experiences in life to find solutions that will promote a lifestyle of emotional, mental, and social well-being. By establishing this therapeutic alliance, we can create and implement a mutual plan to achieve your goals. It is not an overnight process but a journey I am committed to.

One of the greatest things about healing is that you have everything you need to initiate the change you want to see in your life. I would love to help you navigate in uncovering those resources. I don't have the power to give you anything you don't already have but I can encourage you to empower yourself in discovering those tools you may have forgotten you had or never fully utilized.It is my personal belief that all of us have a purpose and our lives are most fulfilled when we walk in that purpose.

My clients come to me feeling anxious and overwhelmed and they ask me, how can I somehow feel better? Calmer? In control? Now more than ever people are feeling anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed by how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers, and their mental health. Ignoring your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body, but this does not have to be the way things keep going. Regardless of what has happened, change is possible, and you no longer have to do this alone. I believe people can change and together we can get you to living a life of ease and relief.
