"Although I prescribe psychiatric medications such as antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and ADHD medications, it does not mean that I believe medications will help everyone or solve all of your problems. After your initial evaluation, I will give you reliable information about whether a medication is likely to help, its potential risks, and the alternative treatments. I may strongly recommend a medication, suggest it as a possible option, or conclude that medication is not likely to help you at all. We will discuss your lifestyle, such as diet, exercise, alcohol/substance use, and stress-management strategies"

***ACCEPTING CLIENTS*** In my practice, I have cultivated a passion for clients who are dealing with issues like emotional neglect, abuse, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I create a safe space for clients who have struggled getting “caught in the same cycle over and over again.” You might be someone who has found yourself in a relationship that questions your safety and security. When we grow accustomed to repeating patterns of neglectful or traumatic relationships, it changes the way we view ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. I value the research behind the most successful model of couple therapy – Emotionally Focused Therapy. By creating a safe space to process difficult emotions, I work with individuals or couples who are looking to navigate emotional struggles that create further disconnect and isolation in their lives. “We can remain a mere speck of dust, resting on the edge of a windowsill, left untouched.” I learned a great deal from stepping outside of the patterns that left me dealing with emotions on my own. Taking that step to pursue counseling can be met with resistance from fear or worry. I assure you, my goal is to walk the journey with you.

My education in counseling and nutrition puts me in a unique position of providing comprehensive care for issues around eating, body image, and digestive health, while also being able to focus on nutrition-specific or psychology-specific concerns, such as anxiety, depression and other developmental matters. I believe that counseling is helpful at all stages of the lifespan, so I work with children, couples, families, and individual adults. My goal as a counselor is to support the emotional and personal growth of our community in a safe, accessible environment.  I embrace ACT, CBT, and MI, with person-centered, feminist and multicultural perspectives, focusing on lifting up voices of those who historically have not felt heard. I am an empathetic, patient listener and I believe strongly that my role as a counselor is to give my clients as much safe space as they need to process whatever their current situation is. I work in an integrated setting with other licensed mental health counselors, as well as other disciplines, such as nutritionists and NDs, as I believe that health is integrated and that we can best serve our community when all of these disciplines come together to be of service.
