About My Clients
As a licensed psychologist, I specialize in supporting young professionals, creative types, and others dealing with complex identities. Many of my clients are successful but are struggling to fully overcome past difficult events such as complex trauma, discrimination, or ongoing stress & anxiety. They often struggle to reconcile multiple identities (e.g., religious, sexual orientation) with their lived experiences. In our work together, my goal is to help you thrive and live your best life.
My Background and Approach
You are the expert of your lived reality, and I am here to provide a warm, open, and non-judgmental space to support you on your journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. My approach to therapy is affirmative and diverse, incorporating 2nd and 3rd wave cognitive-behavioral therapies, motivational interviewing, and relational approaches to help you create and live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. We'll start with what's going on in the here-and-now, helping you gain control over your body, thoughts, and feelings. We will work together to process the thoughts and feelings that are bothering you and address any past trauma or challenging life experiences that may be impacting you. You deserve the best, and I'm here to help you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You might be able to get reimbursed for out-of-network therapy!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
You are seeking the right therapist for you, and you may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, lonely, or misunderstood. You may feel that your life is unmanageable. If this sounds familiar, know that you are not alone. My background growing up in a first-generation, working-class "blue-collar" family and my subsequent life experiences have given me a desire to support others through life's challenges. My belief is that through increased self-awareness, understanding, and engagement with life, you can feel better, thrive, and fulfill your potential. Let's work together to explore what is and isn't working in your life. Let's deconstruct negative self-beliefs and reevaluate your values, so you can move forward with more constructive ways of dealing with challenges. We'll do this at a comfortable pace, and I'll be there to support you every step of the way.
