As a licensed therapist I have a passion for supporting and empowering individuals to reach their goals. I began my career with a focus on women's mental health more specifically pregnant and postpartum women. Parenting is or can be stressful and/or isolating at different stages. I hope to provide a safe space to be honest with yourself to manage the stress and hopefully to decrease isolation. I have also worked with men and women with substance use disorder for the majority of my career. Sometimes we just need a safe space to talk through life and I would love to be the one to provide that space.

Psychological suffering exists on different levels and manifests in different ways, in psyche, body, interpersonally, socially, both consciously and unconsciously. Thankfully, there are many ways to address psychological struggle, ranging from the exploration of non-conscious intra-psychic and interpersonal dynamics underlying "symptoms" to the exploration of ways that we are alienated from community. This work is especially helpful when the source of our suffering is unclear. My work is social justice-informed and incorporates an understanding of how larger systems impact our lives. Facilitating empowerment is key in my work.
