In response to covid-19, I am now accepting new clients either via video or phone session. Insurance will still cover these types of visits! I am committed to helping you build confidence and hope through developing credible plans and an understanding of your strengths and struggles. For many people, seeking counseling can be uncomfortable because it requires looking deeply at one's life, or because of uncertainties about counseling's effectiveness. In addition to relying on evidence informed practices, we are consumer centered and will partner with you to help find solutions!

Deepen connection in your relationships, develop healthy communication habits, expand intentionality and mindfulness in your life, in a supportive and safe space.

As a feminist and multicultural practitioner I utilize evidence-based therapy that is grounded in strengths-based practice.
