While my specialization is in the treatment of Anxiety using neurofeedback, I also see clients for traditional psychotherapy using methods that are proven to work. I have an eclectic counseling style by drawing upon classical theories and evidence-based methods, such as CBT and Neuroscience, to inform the counseling process. My interventions are diverse and range from mindfulness exercises to solution-focused to behavior modification planning. I am also a HeartMath® Certified Clinician, Reiki Master, and Author of the forthcoming book "How to Hack Anxiety Fast" book scheduled to be released in late 2024.

You have a story about yourself — about who you are, what you're capable of, what you deserve. Chances are, you didn't write all of it. Parts came from your family, your culture, old wounds, expectations you never agreed to. And chances are, some of that story no longer fits. I come to psychotherapy from an unusual place: a background in literature and literary theory, and twenty years of teaching and counseling before I ever became a therapist. That means I listen differently. I pay close attention to the language you use, the stories you tell about yourself, and the larger narratives — familial, generational, cultural, even unconscious — that have been shaping you long before you had a say in the matter. Together, we co-author something new. Not by erasing your history, but by loosening its grip — finding the parts of the old story that were never really true, and uncovering resources you didn't know you had to build the life you actually want. Sexuality often has a central role in this work; it's rarely peripheral to who we are and who we're becoming, and I make room for it accordingly. I work most often with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, personality disorders, and relationship conflict — but more than any diagnosis, I'm interested in the story underneath it, and in helping you become its author instead of its subject. If this resonates, I'd love to talk.

I am a child and adolescent therapist, specializing in treating children and adolescents within a wide range of areas such as, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, bullying, school avoidance, peer relationships, trauma, behavioral challenges, life changes, and transitions. I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in clinical social work. As a certified school social worker by day, I have the ongoing experience of working with children, in a school setting. Because of this, I understand the importance of social emotional learning, and I can help your child to develop and implement the appropriate social emotional skills needed to navigate through school and life. We can work together to develop skills such as, self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, responsible decision making, and relationship skills. Growing up is a rewarding, yet challenging time, and I am here to guide your child or teen through any obstacles that arise along the way.

Support can be hard to come by. In times of stress it can be helpful to have a space where you can process the challenges that you experience in life. The hardest part of the process in seeking therapy is in making initial contact. Having a therapist that can work collaboratively from a nonjudgmental and compassionate place. It is important for the client to feel comfortable in order to engage in a meaningful and authentic way. With 10 years of clinical, assessment, and research experience, in addition to my lived experience as a person with multiple intersecting identities, I can utilize these experiences to help bring context to clients in our session. Increasing the client’s capacity for self-reflection is foundational to my work and I place great emphasis on respect and transparency. Through our work together it is my hope that we can work towards growth and empowerment while gaining the skills to navigate the hardships that you face in life.
