I am happy you are taking the time to read this bio. I have experience working with teenagers on probation to overcome addictions and young adults dealing with life transitions. I’ve also worked with adults struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, grief, and disturbing memories of traumatic experiences. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and a Registered Yoga Teacher with
I have been a therapist since 2011, and I love my role because I witness times of transformation and the realization of one’s potential to heal from emotional distress. My genuine, non-judgmental, straightforward, and compassionate personality greatly influences my approach to therapy. Together, we will build a therapeutic alliance based on honesty, respect, and empathy. I am not an expert on your life; the magic comes from our collaboration, where you will feel safe and empowered to explore your own solutions and gain control over your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings.
I utilize a variety of techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Yoga, breathwork, exposure, journaling, and sporadic homework between sessions, depending on your needs.
Now, take a deep breath, be still, and know there is hope. Let’s work together!
