About Me

Whether we want it or not, our past shapes the way we relate to ourselves and other people. Understanding why you do what you do and working through what holds you back, will allow you to thrive in personal, professional, and creative areas of your life. Non-judgmental and collaborative therapeutic environment I create in my relationships with my clients will empower you to process painful memories, face your vulnerabilities, and examine unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. I believe that therapy is not a one size fits all process. To tailor a therapeutic process to your specific needs, together we will create a roadmap of your healing journey where each step will feel manageable and achievable. You will have at your disposal a variety of effective interventions I have mastered over the 10+ years of working with clients of diverse backgrounds. If you contact me, I guarantee a call or email back within a business day to set up a consultation. I am offering Telehealth sessions. I specialize in treating social anxiety, toxic shame, self-esteem issues, “imposter syndrome,” relational concerns, impact of childhood/attachment/reproductive trauma, as well as grief and loss.
