About My Clients

Have you ever felt stuck in quicksand on some days yet functional in other ways? Anxiety and depression comes in different 'grades' and can be complex. Integrative approaches to treatment are an effective means of understanding and gaining control of your mind and body in a personally meaningful way.

My Background and Approach

In treatment, my goal is to 'normalize' the stigma associated with discussing mental health for you to become the version of yourself. My clinical specialties include treating adults and geriatric clients with comorbid anxiety, depression, chronic pain, trauma, grief and loss, anger and stress management, and cross-cultural identity development. Additionally, having completed a fellowship in geropsychology, I am trained in providing therapy for caregivers of individuals with dementia.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

We each have our own metaphorical mountains to climb, my goal in treatment is to offer a perspective allowing you to climb yours with a few extra tools along the way.
