I believe that each transition in life poses a challenge and deserves a supportive partner. By using a client-centered, strengths-based approach, I aim to collaborate with you as you guide your journey in building the tools needed to feel empowered towards adversity. 

My therapeutic approach is integrative, focusing on a person's mind, body, and what brings them a sense of connection to their world.

Life at times can feel as if it has already been plotted out, and you didn’t agree to take part in the story. You may find that you have no control over the chapters of ups and downs or that you are pulled along by plot twists and narrative holes.

Therapy is about finding your roots and discovering the tools that you need to grow. Using a strengths-based approach, I focus on helping my clients identify their resilience and natural talents. My clinical focus includes working with trauma and attachment, PTSD, depression, anxiety and behavioral issues.

My focus is on psychotherapy with children, adolescents, and their families with an emphasis on depression, general anxiety, social anxiety, suicidality, and behavioral issues. I use an eclectic approach, incorporating CBT, DBT, and expressive therapies, including drama.

As a therapist, I help my clients envision a fresh perspective and develop coping strategies to create positive changes in their lives. I am dual licensed as both a Professional Counselor and as a Marriage and Family Therapist.

I have always been interested in and inspired by people. Life transitions, relationships, daily stressors, and our individual journeys have the potential to bring us joy and growth as well as pain. I love helping my clients develop their self-awareness and build strategies to cope with life’s challenges.

What I find to be the most rewarding in my work as a therapist is the ability to support others in gaining the confidence to break through mental barriers and overcome life challenges. By becoming more aware of the nature of the mind and our relationship to it, we are able to open ourselves up to the kind of changes we wish to make in our lives.

As a therapist, I believe that one must look at the whole person to provide quality care. This includes their physical, mental, emotional, social, career, and spiritual well-being.

It would be an honor to travel along with you to guide your healing journey using evidence based principles. I have a certification as a yoga and meditation teacher which I draw from to assist in somatic healing to integrate a mind-body connection through movement as well as the utilization of traditional talk therapies.

I use a mind-body approach that combines intellectual understanding with somatic awareness to empower clients towards a deeper understanding of themselves and others.

I specialize in helping individuals who have depression, anxiety, and trauma, and; on broader social struggles, such as women's issues, relationship issues, family conflict, career concerns, and life crises and transitions.

I am a trauma therapist and an AASECT-certified sex therapist. I take a sex-positive approach as I help people navigate a wide range of complex issues. I believe that everyone deserves a safe and non-judgmental space to talk about the things that matter to them.

Life's challenges can often leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves. In our work together, my goal is to create a nurturing environment where you can reconnect with your inner strength and navigate your journey with renewed perspective and confidence.

As a therapist, I understand that making the decision to attend therapy is often the hardest. I feel the key to overcoming that hurdle is to create an inclusive, non-judgmental, safe, and nurturing environment to allow you to feel comfortable in expressing your authentic self.

I have a special interest in the treatment of anxiety, phobias, panic attacks, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, and have assessed and treated clients experiencing a wide variety of mental/emotional disorders and adjustment difficulties.

I am a Registered Yoga Teacher, Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst, and National Certified Counselor.

I value the involvement of caregivers in my practice to foster secure and positive attachment relationships. I hold a master’s degree in social work from Cleveland State University and I am a licensed social worker.
