I work with adults, couples, and teens, helping people untangle challenges that often feel overwhelming, interconnected, or hard to name. I believe most struggles don’t exist in isolation—they affect our relationships, our emotions, and how we move through the world. My role is to truly get to know you, understand your story, and support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
My background is both clinical and academic. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, along with graduate degrees in Philosophy and Sociology, and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communications. I’m also a doctoral candidate in Educational Psychology. This combination allows me to look at your concerns through emotional, relational, and systemic lenses—not just symptom-focused ones.
I specialize in trauma work, relationship therapy, and working with preteens and teens—who are often misunderstood but incredibly important to support early. I’ve trained in EMDR, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, Art Therapy, and Conflict & Dispute Resolution. Above all, I value creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely supported.
A Collaborative Partnership for Meaningful Growth
Hi, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes that the most impactful work happens through a dedicated, active collaboration. I am driven by those pivotal moments in therapy when clarity is reached and a path forward emerges. With nearly a decade of experience, I provide a focused space for individuals navigating anxiety, depression, or major life transitions who are ready to move beyond "just getting by."
My practice is designed for those seeking to reclaim their authentic voice through a committed therapeutic process. I work best with clients who view therapy as an active partnership and are ready to do work between sessions. Together, we will focus on the insights and practical tools necessary for your personal evolution.
Una Colaboración Dedicada para un Crecimiento Significativo
Hola, soy una Consejera Profesional Licenciada que cree que el trabajo más impactante ocurre a través de una colaboración activa y dedicada. Me motivan esos momentos clave en la terapia donde se alcanza la claridad y surge un camino a seguir. Con casi una década de experiencia, ofrezco un espacio enfocado para personas que navegan por la ansiedad, la depresión o transiciones importantes de vida y que están listas para dejar de "simplemente sobrevivir."
Mi práctica está diseñada para quienes buscan recuperar su voz auténtica a través de un proceso terapéutico comprometido y colaborativo. Trabajo mejor con clientes que ven la terapia como una colaboración activa y están listos para seguir trabajando entre sesiones. Juntos, nos enfocaremos en las perspectivas y herramientas prácticas necesarias para su evolución personal.
