Your story matters. I help clients to deepen their awareness and understanding of themselves and their relationship to others. I aim to help you discover effective copi...

People often seek therapy because they need help with something they have not been able to resolve on their own. We view our purpose in therapy as providing insight and perspective, responding compassionately to concerns, and integrating a sense of humor. We strive to help people resolve their current problems in a way that also gives them the ability to deal with stressors in the future....

Hi! I'm glad you're here. Being a student is not just about learning whatever you're studying; it's also a dynamic time in your life.

You may be navigating familiar and unfamiliar challenges, some of which can impact your sense of well-being and your mental health. In my experience, we all need support at times in our lives to overcome obstacles, explore our choices, and to strengthen our relation...
"Resilience is based on being able to accept ambiguity and find hope amid uncertain conditions." This notion, shared by Dr. Pauline Boss, is one that is central to my clinical practice. We all have points in our lives when stress, change, or loss, may leave us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of what lies ahead. The opportunity to warmly welcome clients into my office to re-gain their center, tap into internal resources, and nurture the development of new strategies is one I welcome ...
I believe there is more to life. And I work with people looking for more from life…more meaning, purpose, passion, and joy.

As a result, I work diligently to create a safe and empowering environment that invites empathy, compa...
LET’S BE HONEST: Existing between worlds is exhausting. Co-existing in multiple worlds and cultures doesn’t come with a roadmap. The competing demands and expectations leave you feeling tugged in opposing directions, and you’re left with the feeling that no matter how hard you try, you’ll never be enough for anyone. Even though there are many people in your life, it feels like nobody from any ‘side’ really gets you, and you’re not sure where you truly belong. You’re tired of facing mic...

Prior to private practice, I worked in college counseling for three years. My style as a therapist is to provide much warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor to help each client engage in a productive way of understanding themselves and their mental functioning. I take a holistic approach that encompasses the mind and the body. Although I work with many presenting concerns, I have noticed a commonality of how people are self-critical and subsequently experience declines in their mental health a...
