About

Why I am the therapist for you:
Being able to reach for help is a crucial step in your decision to make a change in your life. Regardless of what comes across in our lives, we have the ability to choose our way, to challenge ourselves through our struggles, and become stronger individuals. I have thirty-five (35) years of therapeutic experience to apply to your situation, to help you navigate the areas you have identified that you need help with. With my experience, I can assist you with facing the challenges of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma, Post-Traumatic Stress, domestic violence, ADHD, physical, Substance Usage Disorder, grief, and relationship issues. I incorporate a vast range of clinical interventions into my practice: CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Person-Centered, and Anger Management.

 I am a highly trained clinician who enjoys working with a multicultural population. I treat my clients with sensitivity and respect and provide a safe space for them to express themselves. Listening to others in a caring and empathetic manner has been crucial in my ability to develop trusting relationships with others. I maintain a non-judgmental stance with an awareness of one's cultural beliefs and values and provide an atmosphere where one has the ability to cope through difficult times within their lives.
I am also here to assist you in navigating treatment programs that provide individual, group, and family counseling, address a wide variety of issues and connect you to community services to optimize your functioning in the community.
