I specialize in working with diverse clients, especially young adults, who are navigating through life transitions and who are experiencing anxiety/stress, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, depression and grief/loss.

Therefore, I am focused on ensuring that my clients gain the necessary insight, skills and practical tools to learn how to honor and express their pain without allowing it to control them. Holistic and integrative in my approach, I aim to uniquely tailor therapy sessions to each client’s needs by utilizing a variety of techniques that expand insight and encourage emotional, behavioral and cognitive change.
