I'm a LPC Associate who is passionate about providing counseling that is inclusive, diverse, and accessible. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with concerns regarding anxiety, depression, domestic abuse, educational and learning disabilities, OCD, self-esteem, self-harm, and stress. I'm also bilingual and specialize in working with immigrants and the LGBTQIA+ population. I understand therapy can be intimidating, which is why I strive to be gender affirming, sexuality affirming, anti-racist, and culturally mindful in determining an effective therapeutic approach.

I work with individuals dealing with anxiety and depression as well as substance-abuse and trauma. I also enjoy working with couples and figuring out blocks to greater intimacy. Additionally, I have both personal and professional experience working with families who have a child or family member with special needs. My personal journey with counseling began when I was 25 years old. As a young adult, I sought out counseling and completed the Adult Children of Alcoholics 12 step program. Years later, my husband and I would seek out counseling for our marriage and at times for our children.

Your child is your whole world. When they're happy, you're happy, and when they're hurting, the pain you feel for them is excruciating. But by the time you find yourself perusing the internet for help, you are already exhausted, have experienced many sleepless nights, and are losing hope. I would love to help improve your family's hopefulness and regain its vitality. Counseling provides a safe, compassionate space that can help children develop more full and healthy connections, which translates into feeling competent, worthy of love, and thus more resilient to handle life's struggles.

Learning how to navigate the ups and downs life throws at us is a common challenge we all face at some point in our lives. It can be overwhelmingly challenging, creating unhealthy relationship patterns, and leaving people feeling stuck. Unfortunately, many people find it hard to seek help and I would like to help you find a safe place to manage the highs and lows of life. Together, we can work to make sense of difficult experiences, build coping skills, gain confidence, and nurture growth and resilience.

One of our deepest longings is to be heard. Let me listen. Over time, our experiences and beliefs shape how we navigate through life. Difficult situations such as loss, divorce, natural disasters, school stress, and other life stressors can make it hard for us to move forward in our lives. Brene Brown states, “Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they are necessary to overcome these challenges. Let me be the support you need to get through your tough times.

I believe it is an honor to be able to work with clients during particularly challenging periods of their lives. I believe God has a purpose and a plan for each of us. Sometimes we need a time of reflection and evaluation of our perspectives to be able to move forward. Seeds of depression and anxiety can be hindering God’s best for our lives. The great news is that these can be overcome.

Being a parent is hard. We want our children to succeed in all areas of their lives, but sometimes we find ourselves dealing with difficult behaviors, such as defiance, tantrums, and meltdowns. We watch them struggle at home, at school, and with other kids. We talk to our friends, try a range of strategies, and still feel lost when all the traditional approaches don't help. That's why our experienced therapists are so glad that we can offer Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), an extremely effective evidence-based treatment designed to help you connect with your child and reduce behavior problems and distress in 3-4 months.
