Best way to make an appointment is through my website. Hello, thank you for visiting my page. Therapy is a very intimate yet necessary process in order to change negative dynamics in life. I approach therapy through engagement and fostering relationships. My approach is conversational, positive, and process based. I cater to individuals struggling with the realities of their life. Whether its stress from work or relationships, bullying at school, trauma from assault, or anxiety from your environment; I will assist you with processing those issues while strengthening your esteem and perspective.

One seeks out therapy for many reasons. Perhaps you are feeling immobilized, noticing self-defeating patterns of behavior, experiencing repetitive thoughts, or are anxious about life transitions. Together in psychotherapy we will work on understanding your patterns, their unconscious reasons, and how they might be shaping your current life. Once it is given expression, life can take on a healthier form and lead to more security and fulfillment. My practice is psychodynamically oriented this means insight-based talk therapy. Though I incorporate other approaches such as attachment theory, art therapy, and somatic body awareness.

Congratulations! You have taken the first and most difficult step on your journey to a healthier you. As you begin, know that two things are certain. You are not the problem, and neither is your loved one. Your problem is the problem. I enjoy helping people navigate “problems” and overcoming them. I consider myself a mental health advocate but not in a traditional way. As a therapist, I advocate on behalf of the people in the room; even if I am advocating for you on behalf of yourself. I am here to destigmatize mental health illness and redirect the focus to mental health awareness.

I am steadfast in the belief that there is always hope, and that there are no paths taken that can’t be redirected. Please join me as we discover your process of healing together. A native of New Orleans, I hold a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Holy Cross University. I am currently a PLPC working under the supervision of April Ivy, LPC-S. After taking some personal time to focus on family and motherhood, I am thrilled to be back seeing clients again.

Yeah...so that just happened. In this increasingly wacky world, life can unfold in a way that doesn't always seem to work. Change may be scary, leaving you feeling lost without a roadmap. I work to create a safe, supportive environment, free from judgment so you can show up and put whatever you're thinking and feeling on the table. We navigate together - exploring and sorting out your strengths and inner dialogue to harness your power (it's in there!). My goal is to help you reduce feelings of stress, sadness, and confusion, open your mind to possibilities, and provide concrete tools and strategies to get you back on your best path.

For the past twenty years my professional practice as a psychotherapist has co-evolved with my personal practice as a meditator and a student of Buddhist thought. As a result, the work I do with clients draws on wisdom from both Eastern and Western understandings of how suffering arises and how we can either ease it, or magnify it, with our choices of thought and behavior. My goal is to create a space of curiosity, compassion, and humor where we can identify the troublesome patterns in your life and develop wise responses to them.

Welcome! I am here to help you work through life's tough transitions and emotional difficulties. I provide an approach based in acceptance, but I also find it important to be direct and give concrete solutions and responses to my clients. I use many different treatment modalities, dependent on what best fits you and your needs. I have specialized training in cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed care. I also recently obtained certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) as a specialist for women struggling with mood while pregnant through postpartum and beyond.

So many things can pull us away from feeling fully alive and from having meaningful relationships, to ourselves and to others. I enjoy helping people strengthen their belief in themselves and become less alienated. Therapy with me is about bringing awareness to behavior and thought patterns that no longer serve you. Without recognition of these patterns it is impossible to make a conscious decision to be/do something new. You never know what's possible when you bring energy and imagination to the parts of your self that need attention.

Since 2009, I have worked with college age and older adults to confront and manage struggles surrounding depression, anxiety, identity confusion, and trauma. All of our work is approached with the presumption that there is an intelligence within that ultimately knows what is best for you, but this wisdom is often concealed by overwhelming emotions, grief, toxic relationships, self-defeating behaviors and thought patterns. We work collaboratively often using dreams and creative projects to gain deeper understanding of the unconscious.

I connect easily with folks who identify as neurodivergent, queer, expressive, eccentric, activist, artist or hospitality worker. You may have tried other forms of therapy and are seeking an alternative way to process trauma, gain a deeper understanding of self and your relationships. An openness and willingness to lean into the creative process is paramount for our work together, you don't have to be an artist to benefit. It is my hope to guide you toward a more embodied self through creative expression. My experience and training informs the way I guide you toward your own creative uncovering and self-exploration.

Hi! Therapy is a very courageous process so being this far in your journey is tremendous.

Maybe, you're not quite sure what's going on and want to do some exploration. If we establish a counseling relationship, then our work will be centered in honesty, authenticity, and a development of trust.

You're struggling to connect sexually and emotionally with your partner(s): you've bought a stack of self-help books, asked your doctor, and spent many late nights on Google- but nothing's working. And it's affecting your relationship! Your partner(s) keep getting frustrated with you- it's the same fight over and over. Part of you wants to run away forever, part of you wants to scream and throw things, but an even bigger part wants to figure out a way to make this a healthy, happy relationship. Your biggest fear is that your partner will leave for good. You know you can't keep going down this path but it's so overwhelming.

It is my belief that therapy is a collaborative effort between client and counselor. Therefore, during our sessions we will work together to define your goals, illuminate critical issues, and explore specific patterns of behavior, emotions, and feelings. Our work together begins as we sift through your past and present relationships, family dynamics, and important life themes. As a resource for processing, I can offer you insight, suggestions, and encouragement towards achieving your goals. I believe that if you understand the feelings behind your beliefs you will achieve clarity to make different choices. Together we will develop strategies to faciltate change.
