I have a professional interest and passion to counsel adolescents, adults, families, and couples using evidence-based approaches and interpersonal practices. With supporting individuals overcoming trauma, mental illness, and/or substance abuse, I've learned how to aid in promoting an individual's personal sense of resilience through mindfulness techniques, along with other interventions, eliminating barriers to treatment. My clinical orientation includes, but is not limited to, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, existentialism, and person-centered approaches. By observing how individuals’ home and school environments influenced their behaviors, I found a unique fascination and understanding in how systems influence an individual and family.
I work with individuals seeking deeper self-awareness and clarity around the root causes of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or relationship challenges. If you feel stuck in repetitive patterns or disconnected from your authentic self, I offer guidance to explore and heal past wounds, trauma, or relational dynamics. Grounded in mindfulness and self-compassion, my approach supports emotional growth by examining how past experiences shape present thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I strive to create a safe, empathic space where you can explore your inner world, strengthen your connection to yourself, and navigate life’s challenges with greater understanding and care.

Accepting new clients! Life throws some real shit at us, and each of us deals with this in different ways. I am quite sure you have been judged by people who just don't get it. Or, maybe you're a person who doesn't show you are having struggles and you hide them. Either way, we all handle our shit differently, but I am here to help you. I have only one way in life, and that is authenticity with some added humor, OH, and some swear words here and there (it's my love language). If you have read this far, I might be your gal! Shoot me an email. I specialize in anxiety, and if you are here, you definitely can use some relief!

When it comes to therapy, I engage each person, focusing on their uniqueness and the reason they are seeking therapy.
