It is such an overwhelming and vulnerable process reaching out for therapy, so the fact you've found my page is already a step in the right direction.

I am a licensed counselor working primarily with adults and millennials. I specialize in those moving through radical life transitions such as moving, beginning/ending relationships, making career changes, and wanting to change their relationship with substances. Life transitions, even positive ones, can leave us feeling alone, stuck, confused, anxious, and even, despairing. My treatment with you will be tailored to your goals, preferences, and desired outcomes for therapy. I treat each of my clients with respect and provide an atmosphere full of safety and free of judgment.

“Everything can be taken from us but one thing, the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way” — Viktor Frankl. It is my firm belief that we free ourselves to think and act in new ways when we are willing to embrace the exploration of the self and develop insights into the motivations behind our behavior. We will work together to build a shared understanding of the obstacles that you are facing, whether that means improving your interpersonal relationships, exploring your identity/sexuality/spirituality, strengthening your self esteem, finding motivation and success in your career, navigating overwhelming and traumatic experiences, or identifying maladaptive patterns that may be acting as barriers to the life you want. I offer both short and long term psychotherapy to adolescents and adults seeking assistance with anxiety, mood disorders, mood dysregulation, obsessive thinking, compulsive behavior, ADHD, substance abuse, anger, impulsivity, highly sensitive temperament, and psychoeducation related to psychiatric medication management.

I work best with young adults struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, life transitions, and stress management. I look to help clients process their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, create a deeper awareness and understanding of themselves, and ultimately develop self-compassion, relief from symptoms, and positive change. I work collaboratively with clients to identify both positive and negative patterns or areas for potential growth in their lives, create goals for themselves and improve at their own pace.

I am trained in using CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches to help people make lasting changes to their self-image that lead to real changes in their lives. My approach is hands on, goal-oriented, strengths based, and gender/identity affirming. I help clients challenge unrealistic patterns of thinking, deconstruct who they are from who they have learned to be, learn how to feel safe and regulated in their body, identify options for difficult life situations that align with their values, and learn the skills to meet their needs e.g. assertiveness, boundary setting, communication, mindfulness, relaxation and grounding.

You are motivated for treatment! You are voluntarily seeking treatment to address some codependency issues, self-esteem, childhood, and adult trauma while engaging in a self-discovery journey. You want to address past history of dysfunctional relationships and are open to learning and engaging in healthy relationships with yourself and others. You are willing to be challenged in the process of growth and prepared to explore unconscious patterns, strengthen connections to self and others, set boundaries, and overcome emotional difficulties.

Our backgrounds create a unique individuality that should be acknowledged, especially within therapy. I hope to foster an environment where you feel comfortable to explore your emotions, thoughts, and experiences in a non-judgmental space. We have internal resources that we are not aware of, meaning that we are all equipped to handle life’s struggles in one way or another. Compassionate and individualized therapy can assist you in finding these strengths and resources to learn and develop skills to improve your emotional well-being and overall mental health.

My practice specializes in empowering the individual to regain the perceived loss of control over their life. The main avenue is through the use of state of the art Biofeedback, Neurofeedback, Hypnosis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Techniques. The conditions treated include anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, insomnia and various neurological issues including ADHD and Tourette's Syndrome. I also specialize in various stress related conditions including headaches, gastrointestinal disorders, chronic pain, TMJ and cardiovascular problems.

Trained in cognitive behavior treatment, I am a compassionate, experienced, and skilled social worker who has held many senior clinical management positions. I am eager to collaborate and work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, relationship issues, employment issues, anger management, and addictions. In a focused and direct manner, we will address immediate concerns and symptoms, as well as deeply explore unresolved childhood issues, emotions, and traumas. Together, with the client, we will exercise coping skills to empower you to take control of their life.

I believe therapy should be client-centered and take an integrative perspective, bringing techniques from various approaches such as psychodynamic, creative art therapy, CBT, mindfulness practice, and interpersonal therapy. I am also trauma-informed and hope to create a safe space for you to explore your past and create new experiences for the future. I honor the time spent together in building a collaborative alliance with my clients and I am curious to understand individual's life from their sociocultural backgrounds.

I can help you get there.

Talking about your depression, grief, trauma, and loss can seem overwhelming, but I believe you have the strength to process these difficult feelings and work towards feeling like your self again.
