Great to meet you!

Congratulations! You have taken the first, often awkward, step in changing your life by looking for a therapist. Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is being vulnerable and choosing hope in spite of your pain. I have a doctorate in Psychology. I enjoy working through unexpected challenges. In collaboration with you and your strengths, I strive to build hope and open up your creative and innovative thought processes that will affect confidence and a positive outlook.

My approach to therapy

Together, in your journey to healing, we draw a holistic picture of your problems to help you find solutions, heal from unresolved traumas, and find a deeper sense of purpose and connection. I help you reach your potential by exploring your uniqueness.

What you can expect from me

When you work with me, you will be treated in a manner that reflects your individuality. Together we find that sweet spot between acceptance and change that can help you transform your life into one that feels great to you. You deserve to be living your best life and fulfilling your potential, individuating to become your Best Self – “Perfectly, Imperfect.”
