Seeking mental health takes courage! My clients are facing challenges that are out of their control so my focus is to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship. Next step is to work together to develop healthy coping skills to gain a better footing on life. I have experience in the mental health field for over 20 years and believe each person I work with brings a unique story to be shared. I specialize in the treatment of mood disorders and anxiety, grief/loss, family/relationship discourse, trauma, neurodiversity, substance abuse/addiction/dual diagnosis, eating disorders, and navigating a chronic/serious illness.

Hi there! I am so glad that you are here and considering therapy. As someone who was raised in a culture where mental health was not widely discussed, I understand firsthand the power of being able to openly share your thoughts without fear of judgment or scrutiny. With that being said, I also understand how intimidating it can be to attend therapy, especially for the first time. My goal as a therapist is to meet my clients where they are and create a safe and warm environment in which my clients can explore their authentic selves.
