Therapy should be a comfortable space where clients can explore problems, understand themselves and their experiences, and make necessary changes to build more fulfilling and authentic lives. Much of my work has been focused on serving Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, LGBTQ2+, and working-class people struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, discrimination, relationships, identity, transitioning, disability, work, and family. My goal is to promote self-determination and work collaboratively with clients so they feel deeply understood, connected, and more empowered to move toward genuine healing and growth.

Our world is complex and navigating it can feel overwhelming. The only constant is change and sometimes it can be hard to know what’s next. Is it any surprise that we sometimes get stuck? I work with couples, individuals, and families and help them work through difficult times by creating new paths.

For as long as I can remember, I have had a passion for helping and supporting others, which is why I love being a therapist. You as an individual come into my office with your own unique set of challenges, needs, and history. This allows me to really take my time getting to know who you are, what you're looking for, and what will be most helpful to you in our time together. I strive to create a safe space that utilizes a strengths based and non judgmental approach where you feel heard, understood, and more confident as you reach your identified goals at a pace that feels sustainable to you. My goal is to meet you where you're at.

"Tomorrow, you promise yourself, will be different, yet, tomorrow is too often a repetition of today." James T. Mccay. Research has repeatedly shown that the single largest factor impacting treatment outcomes is not a provider's treatment methodology or theoretical orientation, but rather the quality of a client's relationship with their individual provider. Consequently I work with each client to design a carefully researched yet highly customized program that fits their unique needs. I am able to form a realistic plan for improving their life situation that brings about improvement in their symptoms quickly.

I am seeking clients looking for support in navigating life transitions and finding more balance in their busy lives. As a previous K-12 educator, I also hope to work with helping professionals as there is a large need for ongoing support in taxing careers. I have a passion for perinatal mental health and provide services and support for women who are experiencing infertility, pregnancy, postpartum, or transitioning into motherhood. I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.

I believe that early intervention can prevent serious mental health issues later in life and creates a healthy foundation for children and their families. I also believe anyone can benefit from therapy, so I appreciate and respect working collaboratively, alongside people who are experiencing stress including trauma, life changes, anxiety, depression, and relational problems. I enjoy working with people of all ages, helping people to find their inner strengths from an attachment, developmental, and systemic perspective.

Providing a safe and therapeutic environment for people to explore options for a happy and healthier life for themselves and the people they love is the cornerstone of my approach to therapy. I strive to provide quality services for people of all ages, groups, and family units that embrace a solution-focused model. With an extensive professional background working with children and families as a therapist and manager of the Adult, Children, Family, and Respite services, my experience has equipped many different approaches to your therapeutic process. Experiential and innovative forms of therapy including Equine Assisted Therapy.

I find that we seek out therapy when what has worked is no longer working and we are feeling stuck, which calls us to understand ourselves differently and move towards change. While change can be uncertain, therapy can offer a deeper understanding of your authentic self and what you need. I have a particular interest in working with individuals experiencing life transitions such as academic and career change, family of origin transitions, family changes, grief and loss, interpersonal distress, trauma and relational concerns. I'm passionate about connecting with teens and adults of all backgrounds and identities.

We are living in very challenging times of instability and change. I assist with the enhancement of coping mechanisms through the art of therapy. We will identify the stressors related to the trauma of life experiences that have created discord with your spirit/soul. We will work together to help promote healthy living within Self, family, community, and address any healthy sexuality issues, while finding a new internal balance. Our goal is to thrive with new and curious ways of living.

Hello and welcome! I am happy you're here. Choosing a therapist is a highly personal decision and I'm hoping that I can help ease this burden. I'd love to connect and discuss your goals to determine if my specialty training in clinical, rehabilitation, and assessment psychology are compatible with your needs.

I have nearly 25 years of experience as a therapist working with depression, anxiety, relationships, stress management, and professional/general burnout. I particularly enjoy and have experience supporting other helping professionals in all of these areas. I enjoy using positive psychology, gratitude, and humor with Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, DBT strategies, ART (trauma modality), and a variety of other evidenced-based interventions. My approach is practical and unique to individual needs. I hope you feel empowered with effective, easy to use strategies for improved mental health, relationships, and quality living.

Life is a stroll alongside a river—beautiful scenery bursting with vibrancy and opportunity but filled with unanticipated peril. One moment, your direction seems sure; the next moment, you’re stuck in ruthless rapids. The origin of the rapids varies: they can form from the loss of a loved one, pervasive negative energy or illness, or a traumatic event in your life. In my practice, I primarily work with adults ages 19 and beyond who live with chronic pain and illness, terminal illness, grief stemming from death or loss, spiritual pain, developmental trauma, PTSD, depression, and/or anxiety.

I am happy you are reaching out. I'm of the mindset that everyone can benefit from therapy. Each of us has unique worries or concerns. We may say to ourselves, “I don't want to burden my friends and family with these” or “I just can't imagine anyone listening to me without judgment”. Choosing a therapist that you feel comfortable talking to is essential. I understand that many times the only way to build self-compassion, improve relationships, and cope with stress is to start off feeling understood, respected, and valued.

As a therapist, I believe in meeting people where they are at and that you, the individual, are the expert on your life.

Throughout my work, I hope to foster a space in which we can communicate openly about what is working and what may not. I look forward to collaborating together and getting to know you better, as this journey will be a team effort between the two of us.
