I strive to cultivate an environment where my clients feel comfortable and safe to explore different thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and experiences. Therapy is not a “one size fits all”. I will meet you where you are in your journey, as we move alongside each other at a pace that works best for you. Together, as an individual or family unit, we will work towards setting goals, finding more effective ways to cope, and navigating life's challenges and opportunities as you work towards your goals. I have treated a wide variety of concerns, such as life transitions, depression, anxiety, ADHD, anger, and relationship issues.

Life is hard sometimes. Maybe you’re dealing with a difficult relationship or maybe you are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or past hurts.

I want you to know you are not alone. Providing a safe place where you feel accepted, heard and understood is one of my top priorities. Working together, we can better understand the reasons for the things you struggle with and empower you to handle them in a healthy way.

I believe that everyone has inherent strength. While I can be direct and to the point, I understand that this conversation is about your life, not mine. I come from an inclusive feminist background and am comfortable working with all genders. I also believe in the power of laughter and that everyone is capable of living their best life. We are not broken and do not need fixing. However, there are times in life when we need a safe space to focus on where to go next. Addressing trauma, depression, PTSD, and CPTSD doesn’t always mean reliving past experiences or sharing every detail. My goal is to support you in moving beyond.

Body-image concerns, eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties impact our ability to grasp the life we long for. Simple pleasures such as enjoying time with friends, celebrating special moments, going out for dinner, hanging out with peers, or feeling connected to our partner can be a daunting or impossible prospect. Stepping into therapy can feel just as daunting, but it can be the beginning of grasping the life you deserve. I have worked with adolescents, teens, and adults to strengthen recovery from their eating disorder, improve body image, heal trauma, and strengthen relationships.

When choosing a therapist it is important to consider many different perspectives. First and most importantly, is this someone that you will be comfortable working with? Education and experience are other considerations? However, when it comes right down to it, it's about connecting. All the great tools that a therapist may have will be useless if you do not connect with them. I have heard from many of my clients about negative experiences in the past with therapists and how they feel like nothing really happened.

Are you feeling like something is missing in your life? Do you wish you could have your life back the way it used to be? Or maybe it has never been what you would like it to be. It could be related to relationships, work, family, or even nothing that you can identify at all. Ignoring the problem is not the answer even though it seems easier. You may want a "quick fix" but there is no replacement for really working through the issues in our lives and getting to a better place. Basically...how you got where you are and where to go from here. It is a big step. That's the kind of "fix" that lasts a lifetime.

As a 3rd generation social services worker, I often joke that I was born into this field. I cannot imagine myself in any other profession. This is all I have ever wanted to do. With that being said, I was also born into a society that often refuses to accept the necessity for therapy. Especially for men and people of color. Part of my aim as a clinician is to dispel some of the bias towards seeking help for mental health issues. If you had an injured limb, you would seek out help. If you had contracted a virus, you would seek out help. Why should seeking out help for emotional and mental illness be any different? It should not!

You’re sitting here and a thought pops into your head saying “I am not enough” which leads you down a rabbit hole of negative thinking and now has you feeling anxious, irritable, and moody. You don’t know how to stop this train wreck of thinking and your thoughts have taken power over you. You’ve tried everything you can think of to silence your inner-critic: reading books, blogs, yoga, journaling, and even therapy. But none of it has worked, at least not for long. You’re ready for a change.
