I'm a licensed professional counselor. My practice is focused on working with clients with childhood relational trauma, and neurodivergent people, (people with adhd, autistic and bipolar neurotypes.

Creating a more enjoyable, sustainable life for yourself may mean deepening self-acceptance and self-understanding, practicing boundaries and advocating for yourself in relationships, exploring your values or finding your way through a difficult transition.

Hi! I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in helping adults who struggle with self-esteem, cultural and identity concerns, relationship issues, trauma recovery, as well as depression and anxiety.

I am passionate about helping individuals achieve sustainable weight loss by addressing the root causes of weight gain. Rather than relying on fad diets or quick fixes, I use a functional medicine approach to identify metabolic imbalances, hormone dysfunction, gut health issues, and inflammation that may be holding you back. In addition to personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies, I offer compounded GLP-1 medications as a tool to support appetite regulation and metabolic health. My goal is to help you lose weight, keep it off, and feel your best—focusing on long-term health, not just the number on the scale. As a rheumatoid arthritis warrior myself, I specialize in helping others battling autoimmune conditions. My focus is on reversing inflammation and addressing the root cause to support lasting healing. Treatment philosophy I believe in compassionate, patient-centered care. Every patient deserves individual attention and personalized treatment plans. I aim to understand each patient's unique story, including their health, lifestyle, and needs. By using the latest research and technology, I create tailored programs that not only address current issues but promote long-term health. Collaboration is key. I work closely with a team of health professionals to ensure comprehensive support. Education is also a priority—I empower patients with knowledge about their health, nutrition, and wellness strategies. Together, we monitor progress, adjusting plans as needed, for the best possible outcomes. Your health journey is my passion.
