Does your life feel out of control and you're lacking the energy, motivation or know how to make any changes? Are you looking to live a more peaceful and fulfilling life? I'm a licensed psychologist that enjoys working with clients in helping them to live a life that is more peaceful and aligned with their desires. I engage in enlightening conversations that assist clients in identifying roadblocks and discovering the path to a better life. I have 15+ years of experience working with a diverse array of clients of various ages, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations and gender identities. I specialize in working with clients who have depression, anxiety, PTSD and LGBTQIA+ concerns. Using a combination of evidenced based therapies, primarily focused on altering maladaptive ways of thinking, and mindfulness practices, I can help you to achieve balance in your life. Let's partner together to help you live the life that you deserve!

My ideal clients are either Women, BIPOC, and/or part of the LGBTQ+ community.
