My Work With Clients

A Comfortable Place Where Healing Begins

As a therapist specializing in mental health, addiction recovery, trauma, relationships, and family dynamics, I have been helping adults, adolescents, couples and families navigate the challenges of life for the past twelve years of clinical experience. Drawing from my experience as an addiction counselor since 2015, 5 years as a therapist, my personal journey of recovery for 13 years, I have developed a unique and integrated therapeutic framework that empowers my clients to discover the root cause of their problems. As my client, I will guide you to your truth rather than trying to impose my ideas of what I think is best for you.

What Guides My Work

Using a trauma-informed lens, attachment theory, and a comprehensive and holistic approach, I help my clients understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions. I draw from CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic theory to help clients develop coping skills to manage their day-to-day lives while finding their passion and purpose. Offering EMDR.
