Accepting Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Clients ONLY. Do you constantly find yourself asking, "Why does this keep happening to me?!". I can help you discover how you are manifesting your reality through the choices you are making. Most thoughts and behaviors are unconscious, therefore people often find themselves distressed regarding poor choices and feelings of powerlessness in their lives. I can help you make permanent changes in your life by guiding you toward uncovering the subconscious motivators of your behaviors. I take an eclectic approach and tailor therapy to best meet your needs.

Life can be extremely difficult to navigate at times, especially when going through major life transitions. Sometimes we feel numb or stuck and can’t figure out how to move forward or what to do next. I can help you navigate the choppy waters whether it’s from the loss of a loved one, relationship issues, or emotions that seem overwhelming. My personal and professional experiences have helped me understand that life can often make us feel lost. It challenges us and often makes us question who we are.

Parenting is one of the most rewarding and difficult journeys in a person's life and at times, it may become overwhelming. I provide parenting consultations, as well as, counseling, support and education to new and expectant parents.
