Great to meet you!

Are you perhaps feeling like you are not enough? Now is the time to address this feeling. I believe that everybody has it within themselves to feel worthy. I help people find the hidden obstacles that may be hindering their ability to shift out of this mentality. My goal is to empower people to become aware of hidden strengths. Learn to know why you feel the way you do, and come to an understanding of this on a biological level, as well as learning how you may be engaging in self-sabotage.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in Early Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, and Women's issues. I am trained in Attachment, Mindfulness, and Depth Psychology (Psychology that meet's people on a soul level). Symptoms and behaviors are really often unexpressed needs. I offer a chance for those needs to be understood and heard.

What you can expect from me

I will take a journey with you to find the origins of what may be currently causing conflict for you. One of the best decisions you can make for yourself, is reaching out for help. As a therapist, I strive to build understanding and genuine connection. Currently my practice is exclusively online. Tele-health therapy is effective, accessible, and flexible.
