Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying anxiety, navigating relationship challenges, processing grief, or trying to balance the many responsibilities and expectations placed upon you. You may feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, struggling with self-esteem, or uncertain about how to move forward. I work with adults facing anxiety, relationship issues, women's issues, grief and loss, cultural and ethnic identity concerns, stress management challenges, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking a supportive space where they can better understand themselves, heal from difficult experiences, and build healthier relationships with themselves and others. Together, we'll explore the challenges that have brought you to therapy, identify your strengths, and develop practical tools that support healing, resilience, and personal growth. My goal is to help you create meaningful change while building a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.

Therapist

When someone you love is struggling with mental health or substance use, it can take over your entire life. You may feel anxious, constantly on edge, and unsure what to do next. You might be asking yourself: Am I helping, or making things worse? When do I step in? How do I set limits without pushing them away? If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

I specialize in working with family members of individuals in crisis. While many providers focus on the person struggling, I focus on you—the parent, partner, or loved one trying to hold everything together. With over 10 years of experience in dual diagnosis treatment and clinical leadership, I help families understand what’s happening, respond more effectively, and create clear, realistic boundaries.
