“When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own the story, we can write a brave new ending”.
-Brene Brown.

Believing these words, I create a safe, non-judgmental, compassionate space for individuals and families to own and process their stories, while finding meaning, healing, and growth. I have been in the mental health field for over 10 years. I specialize in evaluating and treating adolescents and adults with mood (i.e. anxiety, depression) disorders, disruptive, impulse-control, and conduct disorders, ADHD, sexual identity, and suicidality. My extensive experience in providing crisis counseling, to families and parents, fosters advocacy when assisting to navigate the mental health system.

Incorporating Parent Management Training, to identify barriers to parenting, allows for the development of effective communication skills that encourages healthy interactions amongst families. In collaboration with clients, they will improve on self-esteem by adopting alternative tools to manage difficult relationships. Combined treatment modalities are utilized (i.e. CBT and Psychodynamic Theory) to support the individual in recognizing skewed patterns in cognitions that correlate with concerned behaviors. Everyone is the expert in their own life. My goal is to support you on the journey for optimal health.
