Navigating the journey life takes us can be stressful and challenging. Sometimes we push aside our experiences, thoughts and feelings in order to move through the world, which can lead to feeling disconnected from yourself or others. As a licensed clinical therapist, I specialize in working with young children and adults who experience difficulty with life transitions, parental stress, self-esteem, relationship conflict and trauma.

I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where you feel truly seen and understood. Together, we can work towards gaining a sense of reconnection, identity and control while developing healthy coping strategies and healthier relationships with yourself and the people around you.

I use a compassionate and integrative approach to help clients better understand their experiences, reduce distressing thoughts and feelings, and build a stronger sense of safety and confidence. Some interventions I use in my practice are psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral approaches.

My experience has focused in working with children under 6 and their parents using child-parent psychotherapy, along with other evidence-based practices to work with women in the perinatal period.

We will explore your reasons for starting therapy and the expectations you may have from therapy. I will ask questions to get a holistic understanding of your concerns, needs, and experiences. I want to learn about you, from you. In future sessions, we will set goals and remain curious.
