TELEHEALTH APPOINTMENTS ONLY AT THIS TIME

Searching for the right therapist can be stressful, but seeking guidance from a licensed professional is a wonderful way of gaining coping skills and a different and more objective perspective to challenging issues. My practice is dedicated to the psychological, emotional, and spiritual well- being of age 16+ adolescents, young adults, and adults. Individual and family therapy are offered in a nonjudgmental and professional atmosphere. My practice is inclusive to all races, ethnicities, nationalities, religious beliefs, genders, and sexual orientations.

I specialize in working with adoptees as well as families who have adopted or are adopting. Culture, religious/spiritual beliefs, and family structure are taken into consideration. My extensive experience with adoption provides a clear understanding of the array of issues that can manifest. Treatment is also available for non-adoption related matters.

Goal-oriented treatment is offered in a supportive, encouraging, and comforting environment, tailored to the needs of each client. My use of empathy, clinical skills, and humor will help you obtain insight, clarity, and courage in order to become your most authentic self.

In addition to these services, EMDR Consultant-in-Training offerings are available through my practice.
