Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychologist with extensive experience working with adolescents, young adults and adults. I specialize in working with adults who have experienced trauma as children. My mission is to provide a safe environment where a trusting relationship is established and where you can discover your authentic self and growth is your personal goals are nurtured.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm and welcoming. I strive to establish a peaceful and safe environment. I truly believe beauty and healing are often a result of allowing light shine to our darkest places. With the right space and support, you can achieve the things you want to achieve as well as heal from past hurts.

What you can expect from me

Looking for a therapist can feel frightening and overwhelming. This is especially true if you are one of those individuals who have it all put together, yet often worry about what others may think. Do you struggle with feelings of loneliness, fear, guilt, shame, anger, difficulties trusting others and difficulties feeling joy. Therapy is a transformational process. I have witnessed the healing and change both personally and with in my clients that the therapeutic process offers.
