I'm a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, PTSD, criminal victimization and perpetration and crisis intervention.

With 30 + years of experience as a psychotherapist, I will do everything possible to help you get the most out of your counseling sessions. Being in therapy should be a meaningful and transformative experience. It takes courage to face emotional, mental health, relationship, behavioral, abuse and addiction issues. It is necessary to feel comfortable, safe, and heard in your therapy relationship, as it is feelings of fear, anxiety, anger, guilt, and resentment that motivate us to seek change.

I am a BIPOC and queer-affirming licensed psychologist who is still in love with this work, 20 years in!
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Temple University and my Master of Social Work from Indiana University. With over 10 years of experience, I support individuals in managing anxiety, navigating depression, and healing from past trauma.
My approach blends evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with a spiritually grounded perspective. While therapy is rooted in clinical skill, I also create space for deeper connection—often integrating spiritual awareness into the work for those who are open to it. I believe healing is not just mental, but also deeply internal and, at times, spiritual.

You are the expert of your life and I want to see you live it to the max.

I came back to therapy because I noticed a high number of individuals in need but not enough therapists who are able to navigate cultural diversity in therapy.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in South Bend
Searching for therapists in South Bend starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, experience, and approach match what you want to focus on. A profile may mention cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or support for specific life stages, which can help you decide who may be a good fit.
In a smaller city like South Bend, local therapist availability may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Indiana. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers times that fit your calendar, and provides in-person or virtual sessions. Reading bios before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in South Bend can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
