I believe that everyone has the resilience to help themselves, especially when they are equipped with guidance from a nurturing therapist and strong support system. I help my clients create a custom toolbox catered specifically to their style and needs. My background includes working with children, teens and young adults struggling with anxiety, ADHD, and the overall stress and confusion that life’s journey can bring.

I help people to get clear with their emotions, through mindfulness and self-compassion. I start this process by getting curious with you about what is currently happening in your thoughts, feelings, and in your life. My way of working is supportive, compassionate, and aims to get at the root of things, so that you can navigate through life with more ease and an increasing sense of wholeness. My specialties are: Anxiety, Depression, and Life Transitions. I work with adults of all genders and racial identities, who want or need to honor themselves more, and are ready to be or are already on a healing path.

You may be stuck, feel overwhelmed, or simply want a more fulfilling life. Through a caring therapeutic relationship I work with people to explore the areas of their lives they would like to better understand or change. For many this includes a desire for more contentment, relief from excessive worry, improved relationships, increased self-esteem, and better experiences at work or in school.

WELCOME.What brings someone to therapy is always deeply personal and deeply compelling. Such an experience is unique, and complex. Thus to fully acknowledge, validate, and to understand requires skillful integration of listening, empathy, theoretical knowledge, clinical acumen, compassion and, most of all, willingness to fully engage in the process. I am a seasoned clinician well-versed in a variety of therapeutic approaches. This offers each person I work with an approach that is individually tailored to your unique goals, needs, and challenges. Inherent in this process is open dialogue so we maximize the efficacy of our work together.

In my experience, the body/mind has a natural tendency toward health and wholeness. I strive to create a warm, supportive and collaborative environment as a safe haven to explore challenging situations and/or old repetitive self-defeating patterns. I believe people can gain the confidence and tools necessary to address the challenges that bring them into therapy, clarify goals for change, build on their inherent strengths, create more fulfilling relationships with self and others and increase their resilience in maneuvering through life's many transitions and challenges.

I am a firm believer of implementing change behavior at any stage of life. Anyone can change with the right tools and support. There is always hope even when others don't feel hopeful. Hope is the fuel that propels change at any stage of life. Change breeds more hope for the future and maintains positive life changes that are sustainable and carry us through even the most difficult of times.

My mantra is that therapy, good therapy, should create some sort of movement. Whether it’s helping you create actual, tangible change in your life or helping move along an internal conversation that you can’t seem to make progress in, my job is to help you get wherever you're trying to go.

Do you ever come out a situation and find yourself questioning your emotional reactions? Do you ever find yourself playing mental gymnastics to avoid causing anyone discomfort only to then realize that you're utterly exhausted and have no spoons left for yourself? Maybe you're trying to make sense of your identity, navigate the world as BIPOC/queer/neurodiverse etc. while trying to simultaneously build healthy relationships, set boundaries, process past traumas, and exist in a capitalist society where your productivity is a measure of your validity (spoiler alert it's not; you're valid and your existence is more than enough).

The inherent nature of life is constant change. You set a goal, create a plan. Something happens that changes your plan. You could benefit from guidance to help promote your mental health wellness. Some methods to acquire balanced mental health are Self-awareness, Understanding, Acceptance and Courage. Women progress through "Natural Life Stages". Pregnancy Loss, Infertility, PTSD, Postpartum Depression, Relationship Discord, Menopause and Medical Issues. Children & Adolescent Behavioral Issues are also areas of interest to me. Children our born with a "blank slate". The world around them has the greatest influence on their development.

Whether struggling with longstanding issues or recent life transitions, we may find ourselves locked into familiar but uncomfortable patterns that prevent us from engaging fully in our lives. I offer a collaborative and attentive presence as we explore the emotions and behaviors that drive those patterns, deepen our understanding of the forces that have shaped you, and identify ways to work toward a more engaged and joyful life.

I'm not sure I believe in an Ideal client; I think all clients are Ideal, no matter their life circumstances. Life is like a rollercoaster, and when you're going down, you may need someone to be there and help talk you through it. However, If I had to choose, it would be a client having difficulty with self-esteem, self-worth, and depressive symptoms and needing additional assistance building coping skills but expressing readiness to change.
