Good For You! You have taken the first step: You are asking for help at a time when life challenges have caused you to pause and reflect. Life can feel out of balance, leaving us with feelings of despair, anxiousness and loss. Our basic human needs are those of connecting to others. We feel pain and discomfort when we feel separated. It takes courage to look at ourselves, to find the meaning of the discomfort. This struggle can have profound lasting results for personal growth, better health, and closer relationships with our family, friends and the community at large.

I have been in private practice since 2004 and work with individuals, couples and groups dealing with a wide variety of issues. I recognize that each client is unique and strive to create an individual plan of therapy tailored to each person's specific needs. This often includes dealing with what isn't working in their life, whether it's depression, traumatic past experiences or relational difficulties, also recognizing the aspects of their life that may be working well and finding ways to build on those strengths.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing on a range of evidence-based modalities to best support each client's unique needs. I utilize trauma-focused therapy to address and heal past wounds, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge and change unhelpful thought patterns, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients embrace their thoughts and feelings without judgment. Additionally, I incorporate Motivational Interviewing to enhance motivation and commitment to change, and I maintain a client-centered focus, ensuring that therapy is tailored to each individual's goals and strengths.

I am a clinical psychologist who provides individual, couples, and family therapy services for adolescents and adults. My approach is based on a cognitive-behavioral perspective, but I draw upon other approaches to collaboratively address the issues that concern clients. I tend to incorporate elements of Zen, dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), and person-centered traditions to my work.

My clients come from a variety of experiences including anxious feelings, dark periods of life, intrusive thoughts, and traumatic exposure, to those people who are transitioning in life or working through grief and sorrow. I work with people who have had years of counseling but don't seem to be getting any better and keep going through repetitive cycles. The main factor that connects them all is the desire to heal. There is no need to be aggressive with healing and having to force ourselves to “get over” trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, etc. There is another avenue which encompasses compassion for ourselves and for others.

Working with children, adolescents and families in a wholistic manner is key in support and therapy. I am passionate about working with children, teens, and families who are navigating a neurotypical world through a neurodivergent lens. Finding support, information, and psychotherapy can be a challenge, but I am dedicated to bringing a client-led approach and a place where clients can feel seen and heard. I have had the pleasure of working with community agencies, courts, schools, wrap around services, and other mental health programs. In the therapy space I value client voice, safety and self advocacy.

As a multi-racial, formally diagnosed autistic individual with lived experiences of systemic violence, I bring a unique and deeply empathetic perspective to therapy. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how trauma impacts vulnerable populations differently and often more severely. My commitment to civil rights advocacy is driven by a passion for addressing systemic violence against marginalized communities, including people of color, LGBTQIA+ individuals, those living in poverty, and people with disabilities.
