I'm currently not accepting new clients! Are you having difficulty focusing or concentrating? Do you have racing thoughts, feel anxious or difficulty sleeping? Are you having trouble managing your emotions? Do you feel fatigued and depressed? I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a ADHD-Certified Clinical Service Provider. I provide individual therapy for adults experiencing symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder social anxiety, life transitions and stress.
I primarily use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also believe in a holistic approach to treating mental health. What we put in our body impacts not only our body but also our brain and potentially our behavior. So I also focus on diet and lifestyle to reduce symptoms to ultimately help you feel better.
I am warm, caring and compassionate. I provide a safe non-judgmental environment for clients to speak openly without fear. I provide individual counseling to adults of all cultural backgrounds and the LGBTQ community. I am currently accepting new clients and invite you to call or email me to setup an appointment.
