As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I understand that people are more than a diagnosis and that our communities and resources have just as much an impact on us as our closest social circles. I believe that communication and developing a deeper understanding of oneself, the family histories we carry, and the influences of society are essential tools in helping clients grow. I work with couples and individuals on helping them understand their patterns of communication, exploring the legacies they carry from their personal histories, building confidence and self-acceptance, and collaborating on their goals.

If I could give a newborn an advice, it would be to feel. The most wonderful and challenging gift of life is our emotions. However, most of the time people struggle to flourish in their life because we fear our own feelings. We, as a society, have been made to believe our emotions and thoughts have positive and negative essence. Thus, we develop fear in feeling our emotions based on the story we associate it with. My goal is to create a safe and brave space to feel your emotions without judgement and with compassion; to reflect your own strength and voice to speak your own story; and help reveal your truest Self.

As a psychotherapist, my approach with clients is very down to earth. Not all clients and problems are the same which is why I tend to be a bit more eclectic in style. Life is stressful and filled with enormous challenges; our strength is put to the test daily. We all face dilemmas in our personal and professional lives often causing conflict in ourselves and our relationships. What is often most comforting is knowing that we are not alone. Through the course of therapy, I have one objective: to reach your goals together.

The journey of life is not always easy. Personal struggles, relationship challenges, unexpected circumstances, and other obstacles can get in the way of who and where we hope to be. When faced with challenges, the possibility of change can be hard to see, but where there is challenge there is potential: potential for hope, growth, and a more fulfilling life. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, my aim is to meet individuals wherever they are and help guide them in the process towards satisfying change.
