My passion for counseling stems from a genuine desire to support and empower those struggling with life's challenges. There is no "ideal" client in my practice because each person's experiences, challenges, and aspirations are profoundly distinct. My approach centers on honoring this diversity and providing tailored support that respects each client's autonomy, culture, and personal context. Whether you're struggling with overwhelming anxiety, complex trauma, eating disorders, or relational issues, I am here to support and guide you every step of the way!

Life can get overwhelming and stress can feel debilitating at times. Everyone goes through a period of time in their life where they may need support. I strive to provide a calm, comfortable atmosphere without any judgment and with unconditional positive regard. I'm a fan of a person-centered approach to therapy but I don't follow any one theory because every individual is different and therapy should be unique to you! I love working with people of every background and hope to create a strong therapeutic alliance by working as a team.

Are you looking for a specialist in trauma, anxiety, relationships, and sex therapy? Maybe your partner is now just your roommate? Wonder why you have a racing heart and can't control the worry? What if you feel like your trauma is taking over your entire life? Rather isolate than continue to swipe right into empty relationships? Is your sexual "performance" preventing you from showing up in the bedroom? These are stories I hear often. Elevated worry, unprocessed trauma events, and sexual concerns can be overwhelming!

Navigating grief and loss in a society that can misunderstand the grief trajectory can be challenging and isolating. My practice is dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate grief, loss and bereavement, understanding the intricate and complex emotions experienced, using holistic therapy modalities to assist with the coping and healing process. No matter when grief has been experienced in life, be it 10 days ago or 10 years ago, the effects of unprocessed grief can cause disruption across many aspects of the lifespan. Grief is an individualized experience that needs time, with no right or wrong way to feel and grieve.
