Throughout life we go through many transitions that can challenge our sense of identity and self esteem. Many of us experience depression or anxiety. I help clients navigate life and relationships, with insight and skills, to help them experience the next level of personal growth and development. I believe knowledge of self and the ability to regulate our emotional reactivity, combined with effective coping and communication skills, contribute to personal clarity and confidence. Connecting to, and sharing, our best self enhances and deepens our experience of our life and relationships. How can we make your life better?

Overwhelmed by trauma, narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression, or a troubled relationship? Do you feel as though you're trapped in a cycle that you can't seem to break out of?

Are you suffering from trauma & finding it holding you back from living your true, authentic life? From my experience, I can see how challenging a Borderline Personality Disorder diagnosis can be on a person, & working with someone open to learning new skills to manage it better can be very rewarding! I enjoy working with people who are suffering from anxiety or depressive disorder as I have seen the progress my clients have made in those areas & I love to watch them start to live a more satisfying life.

Mental wellness is incredibly important, as a means to practice positive self-care. We need to holistically care for ourselves in a variety of avenues — whatever keeps our tanks full.

Mental Health and substance use awareness is growing more and more each day. Anyone should be welcomed with open arms to work through issues that create a dark cloud over their happiness. Working as a team and at a pace where you are comfortable is the goal that we will work to progress towards. There is not a concrete formula to happiness or managing our inner demons, but we can create one and I would be honored to help you on your journey.

If you're reading this, this may already be the first step to your healing journey! I am passionate about providing a non-judgemental space for healing for my clients. I work with adults, adolescents, and teens struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, relationship issues, and more.

I will work with you to develop an individualized treatment plan, ensuring that we work towards meeting the goals you have for yourself. I am committed to using evidence based practice-such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy -to work towards a reduction in symptoms and improved quality of everyday life.

I work with both adolescents and adults using a compassionate and caring approach that includes skills based training for practical outcomes based on their values and goals. Using a collaborative approach, we will work to solve problems using skills and move through challenges in the most effective way possible. I use both person-centered and motivational interviewing styles with an emphasis in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to assist patients in staying present in the moment while preparing to move forward. I accept patients where they are now and work with them to learn about their diagnosis and move ahead in their lives.

Healing old wounds allows us to step into more of who we are, with courage and confidence. The underlying fear, rage, grief and shame that leads to thoughts, feelings and behaviors that make life intensely painful…can be healed. I work with adults who have had developmental trauma that has resulted in a low quality of life. Most are functional, some very successful and all have a gap...something missing.

I find passion in empowering others to help them develop skills in order to become the best person they can be.

I enjoy working with clients in the LGBTQ+ population, and I also have had training in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy.

I have many years of experience working with individuals who struggle with mental health and addiction problems. I use a skill-based approach to treatment called dialectical behavioral therapy.

Using my training and diagnostic knowledge I will develop a comprehensive treatment plan that emphasizes relapse prevention and living a life worth living. I work with a team of other mental health professionals including psychiatrists, and counselors.
