As a therapist, my approach is contemporary and uniquely tailored to each client. I believe everyone has the answers within themselves and sometimes just needs the right guidance to trust their intuition and develop essential skills for life's complexities. My style is direct yet comforting and solution-focused, ideal for busy individuals who use therapy as a pitstop to reflect and reset. I have extensive experience helping individuals navigate relationship concerns and addictions, as well as helping people become the best versions of themselves. I emphasize accountability, providing assignments to help adopt healthy habits for lifelong change.

Growing up in an environment that required me to mature quickly, I naturally assumed the role of the "family therapist" early on. This experience inspired me to pursue a college education in mental health, seeking to better understand both myself and others. It was during this journey that I discovered my true passion for helping others navigate their mental and emotional well-being.
I enjoy interior decorating and organizing. I love to study nature and, preferably, bugs!
Every day, I wake up, think about what I'm thankful for, and set my intention for the day that I choose to be happy no matter what I face.
The book Atomic Habits always helps to keep me on track when I feel that I am drifting out of my routine.
Safe Space CNY. Safe Space Organization is a community safe space that strives to change the conversation around mental health by educating, connecting and supporting others through a peer-to-peer network. Safe Space is a community hub with therapeutic alternatives and prevention methodology that empowers the process of healing by providing individuals with the resources to self-manage their mental health.
I support this non-profit because they believe that there is no one-size-fits-all treatment for mental health.
