I know you are doing the best you can and still may be met with panic, messy transitions, anxious thoughts, insecurities, feelings of overwhelm, questions about their future, and relationship issues that may disrupt their daily lives.
I work with millennials who feel overwhelmed, overworked, alone, and anxious as they go through challenging transitions at work or may be going through emotions, stress and disconnection from themselves, family, friends, and intimate partners. I support my clients in identifying and attaining their full potential. In my work, I help my clients identify the issue, process what is going on, build on resources to slow down their mind & body, and transform relationships and routines to improve their daily life and how you feel within it. As your therapist, I aim for you to leave sessions feeling empowered, connected, and confident.

As your therapist, I am here to help you untangle the messy parts of life while shining light on the hope and resilience present in those moments. Together, we'll uncover the roots of your struggles, deepen your understanding of self, and develop thoughtful strategies to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

What do you see? Personal specialties include: Adults and Adolescents with Depression, Anxiety, Trauma Recovery, Couples Counseling, LGBTQ focus, and Chronic Illness Recovery.
As far back as I can remember I've always had an innate desire to help others and see their needs while being both patient and positive. This led me to a career in therapy and early on in this career I was fascinated with seeing the power of exposing people's inner strengths, allowing them a safe place to vent and work on coping skills. After a few years I continued to have a lingering feeling like I could be doing more for my clients. This led me to combine these existing techniques with a new theory called Emergence.

The parts of ourselves that we struggle with are sometimes our greatest assets. Therapy can be a place to better realize our strengths and identify where long-term patterns of narratives and behaviors are no longer serving us. I am passionate about working with people on topics such as anxiety, OCD, trauma, multiracial identity, gender, and relationships including romantic and parental. Oftentimes religion and spirituality and sex and sexuality, come up in my work. My therapeutic approach incorporates both systemic and relational pieces. We do not exist in a vacuum. All of our experiences shape the person we are today.

Ultimately, my clients frequently aspire to cultivate a life of fulfillment, authenticity, and peace.

I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral, Relational and Exposure therapies to help individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, ADHD, relationship or parenting issues, and unpredictable moods.
Do you find uncertainty intolerable, or obsess about things you can't control? Logically you know anxiety isn't helping; however, OCD, depression, and relationship or marriage stress often lead to overthinking & trying to predict the future. You get feedback you're a great employee or friend, but the fear of disappointing people leads to procrastinating, avoiding conflict, and an inability to be present. I offer individual therapy and couples counseling for adults who want to take back control over their obsessive thoughts, unpredictable feelings, and unhelpful relationship patterns. I can help you stop the spiraling.

Over the years I have found that I am particularly adept at helping clients manage and reduce anxiety; recover from childhood abuse or neglect; change harmful relationship and communication patterns; bring awareness and relief from manic or borderline tendencies; recover from addiction; and, increase self efficacy and self respect.
People often come to therapy feeling a need to fix or change some troubling aspect of themselves. What can be surprising, however, is that the therapeutic process may begin as a journey of self-acceptance rather than fixing or changing. Most of us have not been fortunate enough to have people in our lives who can listen without judgement or agenda. That is my job as your therapist. By truly listening, I will learn what the world looks like through your eyes and this understanding of your inner world will help me guide you through the challenging journey of self-acceptance as the gateway to personal transformation.
