Choosing a therapist is a personal decision, and I believe you deserve someone who will meet you with compassion, curiosity, and respect. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to be yourself—without judgment—and where we can work together to better understand the challenges you're facing and the strengths you already possess.

I hold a master's degree in Addictions and Rehabilitation Counseling and am a license professional clinical counselor in the Minnesota. Before becoming a therapist, I earned my medical degree in Mexico, an experience that deepened my appreciation for the connection between emotional and physical well-being.

When anxiety, depression, or painful life experiences begin affecting your relationships, confidence, and ability to enjoy everyday life, it's easy to feel like you're simply trying to make it through each day. You may be carrying emotional pain that's become difficult to manage on your own, wondering if life can feel lighter again. Healing is possible, and you don't have to navigate those challenges alone. I specialize in helping clients work through anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, trauma, and family issues so they can feel more emotionally balanced, strengthen their relationships, and regain confidence in themselves and their future. I work with adults because I believe every person deserves a compassionate, judgment free space where they feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.
