Do you feel stuck, hopeless, alone? Are you ready to move forward to a happier and more fulfilling life? I believe that with support, growth and change can happen naturally and gradually, and we can evolve into healthier and happier versions of ourselves. My areas of specialty focus on adults and adolescents struggling with substance use, mood disorders, personality disorders, grief and loss, and a variety of other challenges and life transitions. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to aid in therapy.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate, person-centered, and strengths-based. I strive to create an environment that allows individuals to feel seen, heard, valued, and validated. Providing you with a foundation of safety, trust, and mutual respect, I'll help you navigate through painful experiences, building insight, and gain healthy coping skills.
I possess a Level 1 certificate in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and have experience providing services in private practice, school-based, and hospital settings. I offer convenient telehealth sessions via HIPPA-secured platform. It would be my privilege to be a part of your healing journey. Reach out today for a free consultation.
