I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who has been working in the mental health field since 2006. Through compassionate exploration, I help you understand and resolve the root cause of your issue and help you cultivate practices that are sustaining to life-long emotional health. Specifically, I provide psychotherapy services which combine the healing power of insight- oriented psychotherapy with cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
