We all need a little structure and support as we navigate life’s challenges. I work primarily with adult individuals and couples. I would love to help you push back against anxiety, building a life that feels big and free... or to learn how to trust yourself and gain a deep, clear sense of who you are... or to get out of your head and tune into the language of your body's own innate wisdom... or for you and your partner, to finally break free from dysfunctional patterns and regain a lost sense of connection and attunement to each other.

Hi and welcome to my profile! I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I help clients who are struggling with Anxiety, Depression, OCD, ADHD, and other life challenges. I also can act as a bridge between parents and teens, often playing the role of “translator” for teen language to parent language. I sometimes incorporate family sessions as part of the therapeutic process to enable teens and parents to work on communication skills and help foster a healthy family dynamic.

As you’re looking for a therapist, it’s important to find someone you feel comfortable opening up to, and maybe even sharing aspects of your life that are hard to discuss. My clients often go there with me quickly; they can tell that I will be warm, supportive, nonjudgmental, and honor their trust. My approach to therapy is multicultural, LGBTQ+ affirming, sex positive, and I have a background working with first generation people. Clients who want to better understand and express their emotions have found therapy with me helpful for learning communication and skills they weren’t taught growing up.

Among families, kids, adults, and couples alike, feeling healthy, happy, connected, and confident can be hard. For so many people and families today, the pressures of the world, fast changes in life, and challenging or traumatic experiences interrupt the connections we wish to have. Maybe for you or your family, this means more and more conflicts, feeling alone and unsupported, being unsure how to make things better, or not knowing what you want or need. Whether you feel lost and disconnected, frustrated, overwhelmed, angry, scared, or lonely, there are ways to restore your feelings of connection, purpose, confidence, and direction.

One of the most critical components of effective therapy is developing a connection with your therapist. My top priority is making people feel comfortable in sessions and working towards achieving the different goals they have for therapy. My clients are able to share their thoughts and experiences through a non-judgmental and safe environment that I strive to cultivate. I often hear people in therapy say “I don’t know what to do. My anxiety is controlling my life.” Others have said, “My depression is so debilitating” or “I just need someone to talk to because I feel my relationships are spiraling out of control.

No Crunch Counseling: Clear, Grounded, Connected. I provide a comfortable setting to understand what you are experiencing and learn skills to move forward. I help individuals, couples, and families gain clarity and connection. Relationships have the potential for love, understanding, and security. When this is not present, the effects can be painful and isolating. Our relationship with ourselves is the same way. We sometimes feel frustrated, stuck, or overwhelmed. With the right tools, we can have clear thinking, manage challenges, and feel content.
