I work with adults, couples, and teens, helping people untangle challenges that often feel overwhelming, interconnected, or hard to name. I believe most struggles don’t exist in isolation—they affect our relationships, our emotions, and how we move through the world. My role is to truly get to know you, understand your story, and support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
My background is both clinical and academic. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, along with graduate degrees in Philosophy and Sociology, and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communications. I’m also a doctoral candidate in Educational Psychology. This combination allows me to look at your concerns through emotional, relational, and systemic lenses—not just symptom-focused ones.
I specialize in trauma work, relationship therapy, and working with preteens and teens—who are often misunderstood but incredibly important to support early. I’ve trained in EMDR, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, Art Therapy, and Conflict & Dispute Resolution. Above all, I value creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely supported.

As a therapist who has done my own fair share of healing work, I like to work with people to help them create the kind of life they want to live. I see adults of all ages regarding a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationships, trauma, life transitions, life stressors & identity exploration. I've been in private practice more than three decades so I've worked with a wide variety of additional types of issues. It's almost as if I've heard every issue that might exist.
I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals, families, and couples navigating life’s challenges. My specialties include supporting people struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship stress, family conflict, and trauma. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and I use an eclectic approach—drawing from multiple evidence-based therapies to meet your unique needs. Clients often describe me as warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. My goal is to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where you feel understood and supported as we work toward meaningful change.
I believe therapy is a space where you don’t have to hold everything together on your own. Many of the women I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or unsure of who they are becoming after life transitions, relational wounds, or long-standing expectations placed on them. You may be functioning on the outside, yet internally feel anxious, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
I specialize in working with women navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and the emotional impact of trauma—both big, defining moments and the quieter, cumulative experiences that shape how we see ourselves and others. A core focus of my work is supporting minority women and those experiencing identity rupture—the feeling of losing, questioning, or redefining who you are due to cultural pressures, relational conflict, motherhood, systemic stress, or major life transitions.
