My Approach to Helping
With over 24 years of experience, I’ve helped individuals, teens, and families work through life’s difficulties and emotional struggles. My approach is rooted in empathy, kindness, and respect for your unique journey. We’ll work together to explore the patterns and beliefs that may be holding you back, while I offer tools and strategies that align with your personal needs.
I blend cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness and other holistic approaches, allowing for flexibility and personalization in each session. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or major life changes like empty nest syndrome or parenting stress, I am committed to helping you find a path to healing and growth. Additionally, for clients interested in alternative methods, I offer ketamine-assisted therapy and psychedelic-assisted therapy, which can be powerful tools for those seeking deeper transformation.
As your therapist, I’m here to walk alongside you, offering guidance and support as you move toward greater well-being. You don’t have to go through this alone, and together we can create the space for real and lasting change.
More Info About My Practice
My therapeutic approach is to help you access your potential so you can lead a life you love. We can't change the past, but we can work together to manage the challenges of the present and access a better future. I use complementary approaches to address unhealthy patterns and negative perceptions that prevent you from leading a fulfilling, meaningful existence.
If you're seeking assistance and encouragement in navigating life's challenges or are eager to embark on a new path, I am eager to assist you in achieving your objectives. For those grappling with the weight of anxiety, depression, or trauma, you've found the appropriate sanctuary for healing and growth. My therapeutic method is characterized by a solution-oriented, guiding, and goal-driven approach. In my role as a family therapist, I emphasize the importance of parental engagement in therapy, equipping parents with more effective parenting strategies that benefit not only the child but also the entire family unit.

My View on the Purpose of Psychotherapy
There is a purpose to becoming a psychotherapist. That purpose is to ensure that mental health services are accessible to all who are in need. At no point should anyone feel they have nowhere to turn, no one to talk to, and no avenue of help.
Everyone suffers in their own way, and no one should have to suffer alone. I am here to listen to your struggles and assist you in finding solutions to lead a happier, healthier life. I use my years of experience and draw upon my sense of compassion to provide you with a unique approach to psychotherapy.
