About

Do you find yourself struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, or substance use disorder issues? Are you struggling with traumatic memories and a sense of overwhelm? Maybe your life has taken an unexpected turn and you are left feeling lost, confused, hurt, or even ashamed. Let’s begin walking this journey towards balance, wellness, and renewal together. With extensive experience working with adults, adolescents, and families addressing symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, adjustment issues, grief and addictions, I can help. I educate, support, and empower clients to triumph over disabling emotions and negative experiences, and become the primary stakeholders in their journey of healing and growth. I utilize a strength-based approach characterized by empathy, compassion, kindness, and acceptance. I know that seeking therapy can be scary, the gift lies in the opportunity you are giving yourself to learn skills necessary to overcome your challenges and struggles. You will leave with a high sense of resilience, hope, and courage. Let's begin working together towards your journey of healing and positive change.
