As someone who grew up in unstable socio-political circumstances and as an immigrant, I have reinvented myself many times, and I can help you do the same. I am a fierce fighter for social justice and a supporter of oppressed people.

I am a bilingual (English/Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian) therapist. I offer culturally informed therapy and acknowledge individual, intergenerational, historical, racial, and social trauma. These traumas are often at the root of modern human issues.
Confront challenges and learn from the past to improve your present and future.

I am just as committed to the therapy process as my clients are.
Utilize mindfulness, empathy, creativity, and personal strengths as we collaborate to rewrite the story of your life - past, present, and future. You deserve a chance to be who you want to be.

What makes you, you is something we should embrace. There's no right way to "do therapy". We can figure out what works best for you, together.
Explore how your feelings and worries are affecting your mind and body. We will practice grounding & relaxing activities that will help you regulate your own emotions and have more control over your feelings and thoughts.

I am a certified trauma-sensitive therapist trained in several mind-body approaches that can help you gain new insights into your feelings and behaviors. Including, helping you with learning new skills to retrain your brain and cope with stress.
Many of my clients are the children of immigrants, like myself. I enjoy helping people explore their own culture and gaining a better sense of their values. I understand how cultural issues can impact mental health and I have ways to help.

I enjoy using active techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but I also enjoy using techniques aimed at helping you increase your awareness and acceptance, such as mindfulness. I am practicing under supervision by Rebecca Fitzgerald, LCPC.
