Great to meet you!

As a licensed psychotherapist with training in clinical psychology and social work,I believe prioritizing mental health is the key to moving towards inner stability and happiness.Taking the step to ask for help can be overwhelming so congratulations on taking that first step!


I have been a clinician for 18+ years and my current practice focuses on adult mental health (18 years and up). I specialize in treating Anxiety, Depression and other mental health issues in young and older adults.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My style is warm and nurturing and I am comfortable being therapeutically challenging and empowering when it is in the best interest of a client's healing and growth. The populations I specialize in include Adults, Emerging Adults, Adults with Family of Origin Issues, Early Childhood Trauma, New Parents and Parent Mental Health through various stages of Parenting. I also have extensive experience in treating BIPOC clients, Immigrants, International students, and Second Gen clients.

What you can expect from our first session

My approach is collaborative and relational. I believe helping clients feel safe and 'seen' is the basic foundation of a therapy relationship. I help clients construct treatment plans based on their unique needs and issues. My approach focuses on helping clients learn about themselves, develop new skill sets and develop a deeper relationship with themselves.
