Starting therapy can bring a mix of emotions and searching for a therapist can be a daunting task. It is important to me that you feel comfortable, and my therapeutic approach is beneficial to you before starting your healing journey. I am an empathetic and devoted licensed clinical psychologist with 11 years of experience working with adults, adolescents, and children (6 years old and up). My main goal is to always provide a safe, supportive, collaborative environment that encourages open dialogue and the freedom to be authentically yourself.
I primarily approach therapy from a trauma informed, culturally sensitive, family systemic perspective that integrates elements of other treatment modalities and humor as fit for each individual. A fancy way of saying that YOU are the expert on you and I am here to assist you on becoming the best version of yourself.
I tailor my methods to meet the unique needs of everyone. I am currently accepting new clients and invite you to reach out to schedule a consultation.
