In my 16 years as a mental health professional, I've dedicated myself to creating a space where you are the focal point of our therapeutic alliance. My practice is deeply rooted in a person-centered approach, enriched by Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) principles. DBT equips us with a structured yet flexible framework to navigate our emotional landscape. We begin with mindfulness, cultivating an awareness that anchors you in the present and fosters an attitude of self-compassion. Being fully present allows you to engage more authentically with your narrative and the therapeutic process. For those moments when life's challenges feel overwhelming, we'll employ DBT's distress tolerance strategies to help you find a center of calm and resilience. Building on this, emotion regulation techniques are tailored to empower you to manage intense feelings and respond to situations that align with your goals and values. Interpersonal effectiveness is another cornerstone of our work, enhancing your ability to communicate your needs clearly and maintain fulfilling relationships. As we navigate this path, your personal goals and strengths will guide our journey, ensuring that therapy remains a collaborative and validating experience. This integrative approach is about harmonizing the acceptance of your authentic self with the drive for change and growth. It's about building a life that not only endures hardships but also celebrates your unique journey towards healing and fulfillment. I invite you to embark on this transformative journey with me. Discover a therapy that is not just about overcoming, but thriving; not just about healing, but living fully. Start the conversation and explore the possibilities for your path forward by scheduling your appointment. Together, we can craft a life that resonates with who you are and who you wish to become. Your story is waiting to unfold, and I am here to listen, support, and guide you through each chapter.

In my experience, I have learned that “hitting rock bottom” does not mean the end of your life, but rather a chance to rebuild your life the way you want it. Life can get stressful and often leave one “suffocating” from the pressure. It is in those moments that you need someone to stand in the chaos with you or help you rebuild. I empower clients to regain control and find balance in their lives. We’ll work together to change your perspective about the situations that are making you feel stuck and identify new ways to address them. Whether you are experiencing some lows in your life, seeking healing from trauma, or wanting to be a better version of yourself, I’ll meet you where you are and provide you with the tools you need to achieve your goals.

Reaching out for help in the form of therapy is not an easy thing to do as many can attest, but by reading this biography, you are taking the first step in getting help for yourself or a loved one. At times, life offers many struggles and obstacles that can be difficult to overcome alone. Engaging in therapy will provide opportunities to explore and process the thoughts and feelings that prevent you from living your best life. Though the thought of therapy may be intimidating and even nerve-wrecking for some, I believe once a person finds the right therapist, they find a trusting confidant who seeks to understand and problem solve.

Usually, my clients seek therapy and counseling after struggling with challenges for days and sometimes months. Over time, these same challenges create maladaptive behavior patterns that must be corrected to facilitate change. However, my clients tend to dig in while inserting a host of new concerns. Albert Einstien wrote: "We can't solve today's problems with the mentality that created them" With this in mind, it is better to seek professional services and resources: Recognizing you're not alone in this healing process. I understand that therapy cannot solve all things of the past that challenge us, but clients can seek support, understanding, and better days. My passion is to help the world heal through community and humanity. I'm ready to help you define and rewrite your new beginning. This will allow you to sculpt the person you want to be.

Young, old, rich or poor--- it does not matter your struggle as my virtual doors are open to assist you in achieving optimal wellness. I believe in meeting you where you are and offers therapy and wellness services in the office, home, community and schools. From the child struggling with ADHD, anxiety, or defiance problems to the adult grappling with depression, suicidal thoughts, or marital problems; to the elderly client mentally struggling with losing their independence or limited mobility, I strive to provide seamless and personally meaningful treatment and care. My assessment of clients includes a careful consideration of the importance of fluctuating mental states and key relationships in their life, as well as family and cultural patterns. I strive to develop an understanding of the interconnection of an individual’s mind, body and soul. I join with you to help you discover meaning and purpose in your struggles. Not only am I a Therapist, I’m also a Registered Nurse and currently finishing my studies to become a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I believe that the body heals with play, the mind heals with laughter, and the soul heals with joy.
