As your therapist, my goal would be to provide a safe, supportive, collaborative relationship with the client for growth and overall wellness. One of my primary goals is to empower my clients through awareness, education, and tools to increase self efficacy. I utilize an eclectic approach, incorporating strategies from a variety of different therapeutic orientations and incorporate these into treatment to meet the specific needs of the client. My focus is on the person's strengths and competencies by using a holistic approach to address the whole individual; emotional, physical, social and spiritual.

I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to process through the difficulties you are going through in life, whether it be mental health (ADHD, Bipolar, Depression, Anxiety), relationship struggles, cultural issues, attachment difficulties, past trauma and/or divorce. I use reflective listening and empathy, and can aid you in working through your thought and emotion patterns (using both CBT (cognitive-behavior therapy) and EFT (emotionally-focused therapy). A passion of mine is to help empower people to be the best version of themselves to have a voice, learn how to be their authentic self and navigate culture.

I specialize in helping people heal from narcissistic abuse and toxic relationships. I also help parents adjust their parenting techniques to the unique needs of their child(ren) or situation. This includes adjusting to conflict in the home, divorce, and issues surrounding gender and sexual diversity. Additionally, I work with adults and youth experiencing personal adjustment based on sexual and gender diversity. In addition to individual appointments, my practice offers psychoeducation programs for learning skills to live life with intention rather than reacting to it.

My approach to therapy is as unique as you. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship by getting to know you, your story, what you value, and what you find meaningful. We work together to get to the core of the issue you’d like to address and listen for the deepest voice within you. I partner with you in helping you to navigate the realities and limitations of being human while also embracing the freedom to choose how to live your life, align with your values, live in the present, and find meaning.
