I have experience working with adults from diverse backgrounds on conditions and issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, domestic violence, adjustment disorder, identity exploration, multicultural issues, parenting, loss/grief, and relationship issues.
As a therapist, I utilize an integrative approach by combining evidence-based interventions to best suit individual needs and preferences. I believe that every person is unique, and therapy is not a one size fits all approach. I strive to create a safe space for my clients by allowing them to sit with their feelings, reflect on past experiences, gain self-awareness, and hope for a better future. I believe it's when we gain consciousness of the inner self, we can truly work towards becoming the best version of our self.

Finding a therapist that you connect with to address your life stressors, trauma, and mental health struggles is crucial. I aim to assist individuals in carrying out changes that promote life fulfillment. I offer a unique perspective I acquired through experiences in providing trauma therapy to survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse with a focus on mindfulness. Traumatic experiences from any phase in life can keep one feeling emotionally numb. I aim to heal wounds left by childhood trauma, toxic relationships, and self-sabotaging patterns. Experiencing trauma can disrupt one's ability to establish healthy relationships.

I employ various modalities and have significant experience working with issues of anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.
As a psychotherapist, I believe that healing begins with self awareness. I view therapy as a collaborative, non-judgmental process that ultimately leads to deeper understanding, progress and change. My therapeutic approach focus is to explore with clients patterns as they relate to past and present experiences, and breaking those that no longer serve them.

Domestic Abuse Therapists

What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?

Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.

When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?

Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.

What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?

Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.

How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?

It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
