I strongly believe that people don't come to therapy because something is "wrong with them." They come to therapy because the way they cope with the world is no longer effective. I do not change people. I expand their ability to handle life's problems. I specialize in an integrated approach to treating a variety of mental disorders. Having an Integrated approach means an all-encompassing approach utilizing psychotherapy techniques, along with dietary evaluations, an lifestyle changes. The ideal client will be ready for change and willing to work on themselves both in and out of session.

Relationships can be messy and sometimes lead to emotional, mental and behavioral issues. At the same time, relationships can also be a source of healing which is why a therapeutic relationship can help in overcoming these difficulties. I have extensive experience working with individuals (both adolescent and adult) and assisting couples and families with relational conflicts. I enjoy helping others gain insight to the causes of their struggles and empowering them to learn to cope with, accept and work through life struggles that would otherwise seem overwhelming and out of their control.

It's time. Time to make yourself a priority. Time to discover your needs. Time to feel better. Life can get complicated and messy sometimes and if you put others' needs before your own you may get lost. You deserve to be listened to and to feel understood.

I will work together with you to identify next steps and the strengths you have to achieve your goals.

Do you feel like you have to fight your own brain to get through the day? So many people feel like they’re a fish out of water, or like they didn’t get the manual to life that everyone else seems to have memorized. This can be really frustrating, and a really isolating experience. Many times navigating the emotions that come with this experience can add a whole other layer to that struggle, and nobody deserves to struggle with that alone. Having the skills to navigate anxiety, stress, and trauma can help people feel reconnected to those around them and help them build the life they always wanted.
