I have been a licensed marriage and family therapiist for over 30 years. I have had many years of experience working with clients in both inpatient and outpatient settings. My focus on treating clients is on improving and increasing coping skills to better manage emotions and/or relationships. I like to give specific tools that can be used outside of the session.

Hi, I'm Fanta—yes, like the soda (and yes, there's a story behind it, but of course it has nothing to do with soda!). With nearly 20 years in the mental health field and over a decade providing therapy, I've walked alongside children, families, couples, and adults as they’ve faced some of life’s toughest moments.

I truly believe that “the struggle you're in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow.” Life brings challenges, but how we respond to them shapes our path forward. I’ve been there too, and I know how important it is to feel supported as you find your way through.

My goal is to work with you—not for you or around you, but with you—as you build the tools and confidence to navigate whatever life throws your way. We’ll work together to recognize negative thought patterns, build self-compassion, and strengthen your connection with yourself and those around you.

More than anything, I’m here to create a space that feels safe, empathetic, and judgment-free. A space where you can be fully you, speak your truth, and start to heal.

Feeling off, overwhelmed, or stuck? You deserve support as you work through this part of your life ❤️ I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, stress, and other common human experiences, such as grief and loss, changes in mood, and major life changes.

My practice is the result of 7+ years of experience helping people across private practice, outpatient community mental health, correctional settings, and intensive outpatient care. I use evidence-based strategies to help clients build practical coping skills, manage difficult emotions, and navigate challenges in a way that fits their life and circumstances.

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure about the next step. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll work through challenges at your pace and help you move towards healing, feeling balanced, and gaining a clearer sense of direction.

I offer early morning sessions into the early afternoon for early risers, busy schedules, and for those who want to start their day feeling supported!

Mental health and physical health impact each other profoundly. I have a keen understanding of that with years of experience as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and a Family Nurse Practitioner at the same time. I specialize in depressive, mood, anxiety disorders, and ADHD. I am fascinated with integrative medicine and oriental philosophy and their utility in current evidence-based psychotherapy.
