Great to meet you!

Congratulations on taking the necessary steps to a more prosperous life. Life can sometimes weigh us down and that’s why I’m here to help lift the burden of life’s heaviness. With many years running my nonprofit organization servicing adjudicated youth and teenage parents,I bring a wealth of experience with our at risk population in addition to working with adults suffering from anxiety and depression it will be a pleasure to welcome you to my private practice.

My approach to therapy

I often use Cognitive Processing Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CPT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience.

What you can expect from me

I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
