Great to meet you!

Through this journey of discovery-navigating: trauma, drama (relationships), and even your mama (issues)-it can be hard to see improvement just talking to yourself. You may be ready to use that life-line, and if so I'm ready and willing to help you through to the other side.

My approach to therapy

Through my education, experience, and additional certifications. I am well versed to assist you in: adulthood, as a couple, or even as family-to build the necessary coping, communication, and boundary setting skills you have been seeking.

I take an integrative approach to help create a plan just right for you and your life.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to work together with you to help cope with life stressors such as: mood regulation, attitude shifts, communication skills, relationships (friend, family, romantic), anxiety, regaining focus, dealing w/ peers, depression, grief, and more. Life isn't one size fits all. We can address all these things together.
