About Me:

  • My clients describe me as:

    My client's describe me as relatable, warm and direct. They often say they leave session feeling a lot better with tools to try help their symptoms.

  • Something to know about my approach is:

    I want you to understand where your symptoms come from. I use relatable terms to help you learn about yourself, behaviors, patterns, and support challenging you to make the changes that are needed and able to do within your every day routine.

  • Together, we will:

    Together we'll talk about your family history, validate your feelings, discuss your challenges and find solutions to those challenges together. The overall goal is for you to do so well on your own that you don't need frequent therapy sessions.

  • I specialize in working with people who:

    I specialize in working with people from all backgrounds who feel like they haven't been HEARD or UNDERSTOOD. I work with you to find solutions that will work in your life. I'm very experienced with trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, kids and teens

  • I became a therapist because:

    We are all having a human experience, and we all could use someone to go to for support. I don't want anyone to suffer; I want to help make it better

  • Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

    I use HIPAA Compliant Google Meets for our virtual sessions. The connection is secure and stable. Virtually you can join via phone or computer.

  • More about me and my practice:

    I have been a therapist for 18 years. If you don’t know where to start, if you’re beginning to doubt that areas in life can’t get better, if you feel like you’ve hit your rock bottom, or you’re pretty damn close I’d like to help.
