About 8122252902

Welcome! Here is where your courageous step towards healing and personal growth is met with over decade of dedicated expertise and mental health support. I understand the weight of reaching out for help and commend your bravery in doing so. My mission is to offer a sanctuary for expression, discovery, and transformation - a place where your struggles are met with empathy and understanding, and actionable past to change. 


With a diverse background and over 10 specialties, I am equipped to address a broad spectrum of concerns, ensuring that your unique needs are recognized and meticulously catered to. My practice is founded on the belief that therapy should be as multifaceted as the individuals it serves. From navigating the depths of anxiety and depression to exploring the complexities of relationship issues, LGBTQIA+, eating disorders, sexual addiction, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges, I bring a wealth of knowledge and an array of therapeutic tools to guide you through.

My approach is contemporary, blending evidence-based techniques with a dash of humor and warmth to enhance connection and ease the therapeutic journey. I believe in the power of humor to break down barriers, lightening the weight of difficult situations, and fostering a more relaxed and open therapeutic environment. This blend of modern strategies and personable interaction is designed to not only improve our connection but also to effectively address and solve the challenging situations present in your life.

Therapy with me is interactive and collaborative, emphasizing empowerment and active participation in your healing process. By incorporating a variety of therapeutic modalities tailored to your personal journey, we'll challenge negative thought patterns, uncover underlying causes of distress, and build resilience and joy.

Our journey together is a partnership, paced to match your comfort and aimed at achieving sustainable change. Whether you're confronting immediate challenges or seeking long-term growth and fulfillment, I'm here to support you with a comprehensive, understanding, and slightly humorous approach that addresses not just symptoms but the root of your concerns.

Let's navigate this path together, embracing the full spectrum of your experiences with the tools, strategies, and support necessary for a more empowered and joyful life!
