Working with a therapist or counselor in a therapeutic setting can give you the opportunity to explore your thoughts, feelings and patterns of behavior. For many, seeking therapy can be one of the most difficult steps on the journey of managing life’s varied challenges. Empathy, compassion and integrity are the core values which guide my practice towards developing a person-centered, professional and therapeutic relationship with each client I meet. I specialize in working with adults, young adults, and adolescence who are experiencing emotional and behavioral related difficulties.

After starting my own family I became passionate about supporting sensitive, people-pleasing women who are trying to maintain a healthy work/life balance and still leave room for self-care and boundary management. My expertise lies in helping women debunk harmful messages from society that keep us trapped in perfectionism and comparison. The focus of my work with clients centers around exploring and setting goals, assertive communication training and self-esteem building. I’m on a mission to help my clients feel empowered and connected to their authentic selves.

The most inspiring part of being a mental health provider is taking a role in the transformation and resilience of a person’s story as they face their mental health challenges. Witnessing the ability to regain inner strength, control over their lives, develop hope, and have the capacity to try has been gratifying both professionally and personally. I choose to continue specializing in mental health and make my compassion, kindness, dedication, and skills available to more individuals who allow me the opportunity to gain their trust and be their provider.

Beginning therapy, especially for the first time, can feel like an intimidating task. I understand that firsthand. The hardest step is acknowledging you need extra support and there is no shame in that, only strength. No matter what the presenting issue(s) is, we can work together to unpack it and focus on what brought you here, what you need out of therapy and what your ultimate goal is. I view the mind and body as one and in order to best care for ourselves, we need to nurture and understand both. Often times, our environment or situations happening in our life can derail this and that's where therapy can provide a consistency.
