I am a licensed professional counselor with 17 years of experience. Way back then, I believe I was born curious. At any given time, I find myself pondering the 'why' of something. This curiosity led me to want to understand why people do the things they do and why they think the things they think. It guided me to a career I love: being a therapist. In the profession I've chosen, my specialties are couples and trauma. I also employ a compassionate yet evidence-based approach to help you achie...

College can be exciting—but it can also be a lot. Between classes, deadlines, social pressures, and figuring out who you are and what you want, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or like you're falling behind while everyone else seems to have it together. If you're feeling burnt out, stuck, or unsure of your next steps, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out all by yourself. I work with college students navigating stress, anxiety, identity questions, academic pressure, rela...

No matter the circumstances that bring you into therapy, we will spend time on how to set boundaries, tune in to your need...

And that change is an opportunity to cultivate compassion and loving kindness towards ourselves and others. I prov...
