I have a vast array of experience, covering a wide range of concerns including Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Anger Management, Relationship Issues, Career Challenges, OCD, ADHD and much more.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My unique counseling style and approach is best described as warm, energetic and very eclectic. It is also a combination of empathy and authenticity as I am a firm believer of meeting people where they are. My unique approach , combines cognitive-behavioral, realistic, humanistic, psychodynamic, brief solution focused and client centered counseling approaches, among many others utilized when deemed appropriate to meet your unique needs.

What you can expect from our first session

It takes great strength to ask for help and seek assistance with addressing and overcoming many of life's challenges. It is hoped that after our 1st session together, you will feel mentally lighter, strengthened, empowered, supported, and most importantly "Heard".

After a hassle-free trip to "Mini-Vegas", I hope you will feel like you've had a mini- mental vacay and a break from all of life's challenges.

"What's happens in Mini-Vegas stays in Mini-Vegas" So your thoughts and feelings are safe!
