Great to meet you!

When people experience trauma or severe life stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. I seek to humanize mental health struggles and encourage therapy to everyone as the path to normalizing and living a healthy, active, fulfilling life. I am dedicated to working with individuals who have symptoms of anxiety, depression, managing their anger, and trauma-related issues. I help individuals identify the root of the underlying pain, fear, insecurity, and lack of motivation

My approach to therapy

My ideal client is vulnerable, yet strong and knowledgeable, yet willing to listen.

I strive to encourage you to be your best self, by gently challenging you, helping you get unstuck, and creating room for us to pinpoint your growth areas. My interaction with you will always be packaged with respect, compassion, understanding, flexibility, and appropriate humor.

What you can expect from me

To find out what is hindering you from living your best life!
