Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm honored to be in the business of helping people maximize their potential. We do not recall asking to be born, yet we are often required to navigate families, communities, school systems and other establishments that we would not choose for ourselves. Let's work together to devise a plan for your life that brings peace, joy and self-mastery.

My approach to therapy

My specialities include helping people to alleviate experiences with Depression, Anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress, Addiction, family dysfunction and racial and ethnic issues. I help by creating a safe space that makes it possible for us to explore underlying issues and work towards developing strategies for making your life a more pleasurable experience.

What you can expect from me

You deserve a judgment-free zone where you feel heard and understood. Please call for a free consultation, which hopefully gives you an opportunity to determine if we may build an effective therapeutic relationship - one that facilitates making your life a PLEASURABLE experience.
