I specialize in individuals, couples, and families navigating life stressors/transitions, parenting challenges, relationship issues, anxiety and depression, and perinatal mental health. I believe one of the most powerful things you can do is understand your story. We have all experienced varying degrees of stress, hardships, and trauma. However, we are not alone! Even the fact that you are reading this is such a huge step in the healing process. In sessions, I aim to foster a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment so that you can be your authentic self.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support, empower, and help you see what limiting beliefs are no longer serving you. Core elements of my approach focus on self-discovery, autonomy, identity and acceptance for the individual and their family.
I integrate several modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused, motivational interviewing, and existential techniques. I will tailor a plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Reaching out is a powerful first step. If you are new to this process, I am happy to answer any questions through a consultation.
