Lead Therapist & Licensed Mental Health Counselor
What problem do you strive to overcome? Many people struggle with feeling anxious and overwhelmed despite giving their all and playing by society’s rulebook. Maybe you have grief, perfectionism, or trauma that is ready to be healed. I utilize Accelerated Resolution Therapy (eye movements) and talk therapy to help teens and adults process their life story and find new ways to live a full life.I strive to create a relaxed, nonjudgmental, and warm relationship so you can move forward with confidence and peace.
