Great to meet you!

I have over 19 years of experience. I am licensed to practice in 6 states. Arizona, Florida, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico, and Texas

I offer WEEKEND availability!

I am here to help! I offer a variety of tools including self-regulation, meditation, mindfulness, CBT, belief systems analysis, strengths-based and solution-focused approaches. I like to send out a resource email to my clients to access the information in between sessions.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am here to listen and provide a non-judgmental space for you to feel comfortable sharing openly and honestly. I believe starting with self-regulation we can resolve a lot of the symptoms at their core. Here is a video to jumpstart your healing journey


(Self-regulation by Dr. Eric Gentry of AZ trauma) https://youtu.be/k0BYt2rPB9c

What you can expect from our first session

Do you feel like depression and anxiety are only getting harder to cope with as you get older? Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, fatigued, and irritable on a regular basis? Do you keep yourself busy and distracted during the day only to feel the most anxiety, racing thoughts, and panic at night when you lie down to sleep? If so, I am here to help. Clients usually report a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month with regular practice of the self-regulation techniques (link above)
