Hi there! I’m a licensed therapist with a Master’s in Social Work and six years of experience supporting children, teens, and young adults. I believe that many of the challenges we face, like anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck, often have roots in early unresolved stress or trauma.
I earned my master's degree in Social Work 29 years ago. Over the course of my career I have enjoyed working with girls and women of all ages. I enjoy supporting girls and women who are navigating middle school, high school, college, relationships, post-partum period, motherhood, divorce, menopause, and becoming empty nesters. I love seeing my clients begin therapy with stress, anxiety, OCD, depression, grief and loss, or trauma then graduate from therapy in a much better place. I believe that you can thrive no matter your age and no matter your circumstances. I have less experience helping transgender women but I really enjoy that work as well. I consider myself a LGBTQIA+ ally.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing compassionate, evidence-based care for adults. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Toledo and have clinical experience in outpatient psychiatry, inpatient, and detox settings. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related conditions, using a collaborative, patient-centered approach to support each client's individual goals.
I want you to feel like an active partner in your care from day one. My work centers on anxiety, depression, and addiction, and I bring a warm, curious approach to your day to day life before we talk about a plan. Good care happens when we build it together, so you always have a voice in your treatment. Whether something feels newly off or you have managed a diagnosis for years, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you feel more like yourself. I explain the reasoning behind recommendations so it never feels like guesswork, and I want our work to feel collaborative and paced to what helps you.
Hello, It’s My Pleasure to Connect with You! As a licensed clinical social worker, my approach is to meet clients where they are. I believe that each individual possesses the resources necessary to address their challenges, and my goal is to collaborate with clients as they explore and utilize their own strengths to navigate life's difficulties. I have 15 years of experience in community mental health, hold a master’s degree from Arizona State University, and am licensed through the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners.
You have probably been carrying something for a while without saying it out loud: anxiety that will not switch off, grief that still ambushes you, drinking that stopped feeling like a choice, or trauma your body has not put down. Helping people find their way through that feels like my sacred calling. Ever since I was young, I've been the person who deeply listens, and I've always sensed the healing that happens when we finally have a trusted, compassionate witness to our story. The story you carry about your past can be the source of your suffering or the key to your freedom, and together we can gently begin to shift it. Whatever pain you're holding, you don't have to hold it alone. I work with individuals, and with couples and families who want to find their way back to each other.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I have worked in both inpatient hospital and outpatient settings, caring for individuals with a wide range of mental health conditions across the lifespan.
My passion is women's mental health. I specialize in supporting women through the unique emotional and psychological challenges that can occur during different stages of life, including postpartum, premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), infertility, menopause, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My goal is to help close the gap in women's mental health care by providing compassionate, evidence-based treatment that empowers women to better understand their mental health and take an active role in their well-being.
I’m a licensed therapist who works with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the lasting impact of past experiences. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or tired of carrying everything on their own. I bring a grounded, supportive presence to therapy and value honesty, curiosity, and collaboration. My goal is to help you feel understood while also helping you move toward meaningful, lasting change.
I have been a Mental Health Therapist for 32 years working with Children, Adolescents and Adults.
I have experience with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, women, disabilities, trauma, depression, and PTSD. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths and improve your self-compassion. I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship and strives to create an environment of trust, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.
