Finding the right therapist can be tough. I am not the stereotypical therapist seen in movies that simply parrot back what is said. I will ask questions, but I will also challenge and dig deeper. I believe that truly effective therapy starts and grows based on a strong, collaborative relationship with natural dialogue as the key component. I specialize in providing individual therapy to adolescents and young adults experiencing (or have experienced) challenges that are interfering with their day-to-day lives. I specialize in trauma, grief/loss, depression, self-harm, anxiety, parent/child dynamics, and any school related issues.

A down-to-earth approach is often what is needed to get to the heart of the struggles in our lives... Psychospiritual growth, relationship issues and somatic (body) awareness are at the core of my working with people. I also offer communication skills to improve interpersonal or team dynamics within work environments. Together we will co-create a sacred space where the depths of your feelings and concerns can be safely explored, processed, and supported. My role will be to accompany and intuitively guide you on this unfolding, transformational journey.

Love. Joy. Ecstasy. Awe. In my 18 years of clinical experience, I’ve discovered that we each have far more capacity for these expansive feelings than we often realize. Whether you are contending with many challenges, or feel ready to fly through the stars, I can work with you collaboratively to shape a life that fulfills your highest dreams, and maybe even soars beyond them. I’m eager to share what I’ve learned about our abilities to break out of old patterns of pain, fear, and shame into fruitful creativity and communion with the most inspiring aspects of being alive.

Entering into therapy is a courageous decision to seek life in response to whatever concerns and challenges have gotten your attention. Everyone bears experiences that have had an alienating and destructive impact on their relationship with others and with themselves. Without the support of another to work through these experiences and use them for our growth, these destructive effects often compound over time as we cope and try to heal on our own. Counseling is an opportunity to receive the kind of support that can enable you to find not only relief, but the goodness you have struggled to access in yourself and your relationships.

I am a therapist of color that is passionate about helping other people thrive in every area of life. Living in a society where we aren't given permission to express our emotions or given the skills to handle them can lead us to a place of feeling stuck, isolated, and confused. Whether it's feeling low or depressed from life circumstances, anger from past trauma and injustices, or just feeling tired of being sick and tired; I have experienced all of these things and want to help you examine and unpack the troubles you are experiencing in life. In my practice, I create a space for you to be the authentic you with no judgment or shame

By fostering deep and genuine connections with my clients, I help them develop deeper and more genuine connections with themselves. By clarifying what’s true for you—your needs, desires, conflicts, and dreams—the next step for you to take becomes clearer and less effortful. Together, we will resolve the stressors, conflicts, and adversities that weigh you down in order to find your flow—a way of being that’s more natural, enjoyable, and true to you. No matter how alone you’re feeling, how daunting the challenges you're facing, or how long a particular issue has been draining you, we’ll face it head on and find our way through.

I really like helping clients out when they are having anxiety and or panic attacks. I have a unique approach, that I learned from having a panic attack myself, how scary it was and then applying my knowledge, and asking myself a question, how do I never have another panic attack ever again? The clients goal is typically to reduce their panic attacks, and I can show them how to arrest it, and to not have one, ever again.

If you are tired of struggling, I can help you find a way through. If the wellbeing you know is possible continues to feel out of reach, I can walk with you and support you as we work together to find the root. If your relationship seems to take more energy and happiness than it gives, I can help you, or both of you, find and heal the places in your story that keep showing up in painful ways. My story is also one of loss, pain, and healing. I believe in the work I do and I am not only a therapist for others, but also in therapy myself, on my own healing journey. I believe in being poured into in order to pour well into others.

Deep inside of you is the awareness of what you need to heal. I help facilitate and unearth that inner wisdom with individuals, couples, and groups. Together, we'll practice tuning into your own unique embodied awareness. From there, we can translate that increased clarity into tangible action that aligns with your greatest, most authentic wellbeing. Our bodies exist within larger systems — many of which can disconnect us from ourselves and each other. We'll look together at the messages we've internalized from these systems in order to unearth the ones that are no longer helpful.

My clients want change and growth in their lives and/or their relationships, but they often don't know where to start. Or, they might have made the enormous first steps of moving towards change and growth only to feel stuck and unsure of how to move forward. My clients find that within the experience of being truly heard, accepted, validated, and supported, that the door between where they are and the change they want begins to unlock and slowly open. My approach focuses on unlocking and discovering the strengths that we don't always realize we have, on building new coping skills, and on creating new understanding and connections.

Welcome! I am a licensed psychologist specializing in challenges with self-worth and relational trauma, as well as the feelings of depression, anxiety, or numbness that often occur with these experiences. My work is rooted in attachment-focused and trauma-informed approaches - I help people understand how relationships (especially the earliest ones in our lives) impact being able to feel emotionally safe with themselves and others. I especially enjoy helping people get out of their heads and into their hearts, or do the opposite when it would help to slow down our emotional experiences to make sense of them.

I strongly believe that we all have the capacity for actualization and fulfillment in our lives as engaged human beings who are full participants in the world. Helping others through this journey is the main focus of what I do in my practice. Often psychotherapy and counseling are used to simply address issues and problems. If we were to use a number score to describe our lives, they get us from being in the negative to zero. The problem goes away. But we can employ these same skills and methods to get us beyond that. Why not hit a two, or a five, or even a ten? For me, this is the big picture of what therapy can offer.

By addressing troubling thoughts and feelings, self-sabotaging behaviors, and traumas, life can be made more manageable, productive, and fulfilling. Feelings such as grief, shame, anxiety, sadness, and anger often signal that something needs to change. Listening to and working with these feelings—some that consume us and others that gently nudge us—can move us forward. Through this, we sometimes discover that our everyday dilemmas are part of larger patterns waiting to be resolved as a whole.
