Biography

With over 21 years of diverse experience, I've dedicated my career to counseling people of all ages and backgrounds. My specialties include psychotherapy for anxiety disorders, adult survivors of childhood trauma, and relationship issues. I work with adults, teens, children, and couples, utilizing a wide range of approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Strengths-Based Perspective, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. Notably, I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an effective technique for processing traumatic memories. My passion is purpose-driven: to help individuals increase their self-esteem, empowerment, and motivation for change. I incorporate a holistic approach, focusing on the intricate relationship between mind, body, and spirit. By connecting clients to their inner power and guiding them to identify and overcome barriers, I believe they can achieve optimal mental health. Through our therapeutic journey together, my goal is to help you break down the walls that may be limiting your outstanding potential, paving the way for personal growth and transformation.

I have been looking for a good therapist for years. Even in just the little time we spent talking, I felt more comfortable and ease and like she really wanted to hear me and help me get to where I want to go, very excited to continue!
