I help people find hope, heal and put their mind at ease. I understand it may be challenging at times to open up and trust the therapeutic process and I believe that being comfortable with your therapist is the main indicator of treatment success. Working with me you may notice I am laid-back, warm, and humorous. Many have told me that they felt heard, understood, respected, and seen. In addition to processing or learning new skills to help you manage anxiety, emotions, stress, or depression, my non-judgmental approach may help you feel safe to open up and start making progress toward your life goals.

I became a mental health professional to help people feel empowered and overcome the barriers that affect them in achieving their dreams.
I enjoy drinking coffee and trying new coffee houses with my family. We also like to go to the movies and take spontaneous road trips.
I implement healthy boundaries with others and myself. I give myself permission to walk away, take a break, and attend to my basic needs.
We have two cats and one lovebird. Our lovebird is really smart and a bit silly. I asked our lovebird what one plus one was and he chirped twice! We could not believe it! Was it just a coincidence?
