About

I’m so honored that you have decided to pursue therapy and are considering me to be your or your loved one's therapist!  I know how hard it can be to get to this point in searching for a therapist. As a tenured mental health practitioner, I have been blessed to have worked with people of all ages since 1996.  I enjoy being a part of facilitating the process of exploration and self-discovery that helps lead to healing and well-being. Since I believe that the therapeutic relationship is central to the work I do I encourage you to schedule a free 20-minute call or video meeting to see if you feel I am the right therapist for you.  A strong and secure therapeutic relationship is vital to being able to do this sacred work that we will do together if you decide to work with me. It's important to me that you feel safe and comfortable with me.  I understand that we all are different and that finding the right therapist is so important.   

I offer various therapeutic approaches to encourage the development of insight that can lead to transformation at your own pace. Together we will find the therapeutic approach best suited for you and your needs.  I have extensive experience and training in working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages who have experienced trauma (including racial, cultural, and systemic oppression).  I also specialize in acculturation issues, anxiety, depression, the trauma of poverty, generational trauma, chronic illness, sleep issues, grief and loss, life changes and stressors, and familial/relationship challenges. I honor each person's process and help guide them to finding their own pace and inner wisdom.

As a caring therapist, I provide a safe space to process your feelings and situations you are facing in your life while encouraging and supporting your own discovery and connection with your own inner strengths that you already have to help guide you toward your own healing and inner peace.  I believe that you have your own inner wisdom found within your own body and mind to help you heal.  Sometimes we just need that safe and sacred space to be held for us to allow us to find our own power to heal ourselves and that's my job!  Let me be your guide and support to yourself.  Discover yourself!  I look forward to speaking to you.  Thank you for dropping by!
