I love being a therapist and I am passionate about helping others. My biggest hope is for my clients to feel empowered to reach their goals. I have had a wide range of experience working in many different settings with children, adolescents, and adults. I treat many issues including: depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, behavioral issues, family conflict, codependency, social skills, life transitions, and others.

Coping with problems is a lot less daunting when you don't have to do it alone. I look forward to seeing where I can be helpful for you!

Whether you are coming to therapy to heal deep trauma or if you’re seeking guidance while navigating stressful situations, I am here to provide support.

Together, we will explore how your past has influenced your present. We will work towards achieving the life results you are seeking.

During our time together, you will discover your inner strengths and learn how to harness them as a resource that will guide you on your journey of progress or self improvement. Your unique inner and outer experiences will help you navigate your healing process. Together, we will learn how to unlock those tools that already exist within you.

I utilize a combination of various psychodynamic, psychoanalytic, mindfulness, and somatic modalities depending on each patient’s individual needs and goals for treatment.
