It can be challenging to process painful memories/emotions in therapy. I aim to create a safe space for everyone to feel comfortable being themselves. I have years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in different settings like schools, community clinics, hospitals, etc. I seek to reduce the stigma placed on mental health, the geek/nerd community, ethnic minorities, and everyone who is often viewed as ‘other.’ View 6 Photos Whether you consider yourself a nerd, a geek, a minority, a collector, an immigrant, etc., your culture is important. Integrating elements of what you love can help you better understand your situation, relate it to something you know, and remember the discussion so you can take it and practice it outside the therapy room. I want to share my knowledge and experience to help you thrive and find a way to reframe and re-enchant your life. In my free time, I enjoy watching anime, superhero movies/shows, learning D&D, reading and painting. Mental health is health.

I believe that establishing healthy boundaries and having a balanced lifestyle help foster emotional health. I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families identify their emotions and work through cognitive distortions, utilizing a cognitive behavioral therapy approach.

Throughout treatment I encourage physical, spiritual, and emotional health, as well as a strong focus on the empowerment of each individual to promote healing.

What's up! I'm love working with young adults and individuals who are going through big changes: sorting out their identity, new job/college experiences, shifts in relationship or religious beliefs. I also work with those who've experienced religious trauma, had adverse religious experiences, or experienced spiritual abuse. I won't ask clients to go where I haven't been myself: I've been doing my own healing in these areas over the years as well. It’s such an honor to work with courageous people who want to figure themselves out, so they can figure out where they'd like to go! View 6 Photos My approach to therapy is typically long-term, client-focused, and combines elements of attachment, existential, and psychodynamic therapies, and works to find the best possible method to help the client meet their own needs – usually with stories, humor, and empathic understanding. Here's the thing - therapy is hard because life is hard. If you've been through shit, it'll be challenging to work through. However, processing past life experiences in specific ways actually helps how you approach future things, rather than however you tend to default in certain situations. And don't worry - we'll do it together!

My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental, and affirming space to explore life issues, help you process difficult past experiences, and to provide you with the support and guidance to help you to not just survive the day-to-day, but to heal and thrive. As a therapist, I utilize an integrative, eclectic approach based on each client’s needs. I have experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-focused techniques, humanistic approaches, and some somatic approaches. View 5 Photos I am passionate about exploring the biological and physiological bases/responses of anxiety, trauma, depression, and emotional dysregulation to help you better understand what is happening in your brain and body when you experience symptoms. In my spare time, I love to hike, travel new places, spend time my dog and cat, draw, and listen to live music!

You’re probably here looking for a therapist because there are parts of your life you wish could be better. Are you tired of feeling stressed, depressed, and anything but blessed? Do you need support during a transition time in your life? Is your child having difficulties in school, at home, or with friends? Do you feel sad and wish you knew why? Do you feel like you’ve tried everything to be a better parent but nothing you do is working? I’m here to help! As a licensed mental health counselor. I offer individual and family therapy to help you and your family reach their goals. View 6 Photos My clients have said that working with me in therapy feels like talking to a good friend, but better. Unlike a friend, I have professional training to help you and have a toolbox full of skills we can use in your journey of healing and self-understanding. I will listen to you without judgement and support you through all the ups and downs of life. Many people see therapy as a one-sided experience with little or no chance to interact with a real person. I promise you, I'm as real as it gets! I want to help you crush your goals and find solutions to whatever challenges you may face. Calling a therapist can be hard, but take a moment (and a deep breath) to call and see how I can help.

Let’s be honest, life is often a struggle. We go through hardships in our relationships, at work, school, home, and within ourselves. Some experience depression, anxiety or trauma, while others struggle to understand or accept who they are. That being said, life is also amazing and can be full of beautiful moments and experiences. The difficulty lies when our struggles get in the way of being able to enjoy those good moments. My hope as your therapist is to help you manage and overcome whatever struggles you may be experiencing, and to allow you to enjoy the beauty in life again. View 6 Photos I have experience in working with teens and adults struggling with a wide range of difficulties such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. I also have experience working with LGBTQ youth/young adults who struggle with sexuality and gender, and have helped many clients go through the process of hormone therapy/gender reassignment surgery. I use client centered and integrative therapy modalities to help you find answers within yourself. I will walk with you and support you through your journey so you feel confident tackling life’s challenges. I look forward to the opportunity to take part in helping you reach your goals.

Empathy has no script. There is no right or wrong way to do it. It’s simply listening, holding space, withholding judgment, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredibly healing message of “You’re Not Alone.” In my experience as a therapist, I have assisted individuals with challenges such as, depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use and schizophrenia. I have extensive experience working with youth and adult offenders in our judicial system. View 4 Photos My goal as a therapist is to assist you with overcoming challenges by providing a safe space to process your emotions and feelings. In addition to a safe space, feeling understood, respected, and genuinely cared for is necessary. I aim to create an empathetic, non-judgmental environment. I firmly believe that you are the expert on yourself and your experiences, and my goal is to meet you where you are on your journey.
