I truly saw the need for more mental health professionals in my community when I lost my father in 2006. Since that day, I began my journey of understanding the mind and how it works. We go through many major life transitions such as breakups, divorce, having children, new professions, loss of income, moving, pandemic stress and more. Most do not realize just how traumatic these seemingly “normal” events are to us at times. I am here to help you if you feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, angry or confused concerning anything that has been thrown at you in your life. If you feel that what you are dealing with is too much to handle on your own, please reach out to me. We cannot stop this cycle of numbing or ignoring mental health issues in our world if we do not start within. As a mental health advocate, I am here for you. I have seen the impact of a lack of relatable and accessible mental health programs and providers. I am here to be the bridge and get you the solutions, support, and guidance you need.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we’ll get straight to work. While building rapport is essential, my priority is to help you feel better and kickstart your healing journey immediately. Drawing on my expertise in EMDR and CBT, I’ll take a collaborative approach to understand your concerns, identify patterns, and develop effective coping strategies to promote personal growth. Together, we’ll craft a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, using evidence-based techniques to drive progress and create lasting, positive change. My goal is to provide a focused and supportive experience that empowers you to move forward with clarity, confidence, and renewed strength.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths as a therapist lie in my ability to be real, direct, and hold you accountable while still providing a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself. I am passionate about helping you tap into your potential, even when it means having tough conversations and challenging unhelpful patterns. I don’t sugarcoat things; my approach is honest and focused on what’s needed to help you grow and create lasting change. If you’re ready to do the work, I will be right there with you, providing consistent support and pushing you to step into your best self.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My ideal client is a high-functioning adult navigating a demanding career that requires advanced skills, resilience, and a growth mindset. While they may appear confident and capable, they seek therapy to address challenges such as stress, anxiety, perfectionism, or unresolved past traumas that impact their emotional well-being. These clients are self-aware, motivated, and committed to personal growth, striving to overcome obstacles and achieve balance in their personal and professional lives. They value therapy as a tool for healing and transformation, enabling them to thrive despite past experiences or current pressures.

My treatment methods

EMDR

I’ve witnessed incredible transformations using EMDR therapy. Many of my clients have been able to heal from childhood and past traumas in as few as 4-6 sessions, often noticing significant progress early in the process. EMDR helps you reprocess painful memories, so they no longer feel overwhelming, allowing you to move forward with greater peace and confidence. I’m here to guide you through this powerful approach to healing and growth.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients reframe and restructure their thoughts, creating meaningful and lasting change in their lives. This approach is highly effective for challenges like excessive stress, burnout, and anxiety, with many clients seeing noticeable improvements within just 6–8 sessions. By working together, we quickly identify and replace unhelpful thought patterns with healthier, more empowering ones, equipping clients with practical tools they can use daily. With focused therapy and personalized homework, my goal is to move you toward growth and relief faster than you might expect. If you’re ready to break free from negative cycles and experience real progress in a short timeframe, I’m here to help.
