Great to meet you!

A compassionate, culturally competent, Trauma-Informed, Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Experienced in helping diverse populations struggling with Depression, Anxiety, Anger management, Complex Traumas, and PTSD. Addiction recovery, eating disorders, complex grief and grief disorders, parenting, relationships, and sexual health issues. I possess excellent communication and Motivational Interviewing skills, implementing solution-focused problem-solving using CBT, DBT, CPT, Mindfulness, and Crisis Interventions.

My approach to therapy

As a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive mental health counselor, I believe healing begins with understanding—not only of your internal world, but also of the cultural, historical, and systemic influences that shape your experiences. Whether you're dealing with complex PTSD or simply navigating the weight of grief and unresolved trauma, you're not alone. Therapy with me is about creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely heard. I understand the unique mental and emotional demands placed on those who serve and protect our community and Country. I’m here to walk alongside you in your healing process.

What you can expect from me

In our first session I like to get to know you as an individual, who you were and how you see (or want to see) yourself as someone who is whole again.
