About me

Life is a journey and every small step you take in therapy is a step in the right direction. My goal is to provide an empathic and engaging atmosphere where you will experience safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental interaction as we navigate your journey together. I believe in a client-centered approach and that you are the change-maker who holds the power to guide your journey. I believe that each person has unique impressions and experiences, so my treatment is tailored to your individual needs. I hope to work with you in exploring your emotions and experiences, to help you develop some tools that can make life’s journey easier.

I have experience working with adolescents and adults. I have assisted clients in navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions and trauma. I have experience with members of the LGBTQ+ community. I am sensitive to multicultural issues and welcome collaborating with clients from various backgrounds to provide culturally competent therapy.

Ready to start the journey of healing? Take the next step and connect with me. I can't promise you that it won't be challenging but I am sure you will be pleased with who you become on the other side.
