I like to empower others to succeed in their careers while also maintaining a healthy lifestyle. After working in corporate America for 20 years, I decided to follow my passion for supporting people's emotional well-being.

As a former executive with high cultural and diversity IQ, I'm able to help you develop effective behavioral tools to reduce your suffering and help you thrive living the life you consider wor...

My personal vision of health includes harmony, connectivity, and balance. For true healing to take place, the entire self – physical, mental, and spiritual must be considered.

Hello and welcome! I won’t pretend to know what brought you here today, because I believe we are more than our struggles and what can be described in a few sentences or paragraphs. Life looks different for everyone...and so does therapy. That's why I meet my clients with curiosity, openness, compassion, and a dash of humor.

Life as a college student can be so stressful and demanding. You have so many roles that you are expected to show up in and be perfect. Classes, family, friends, choosing a career, creating a network... It can feel overwhelming and like you don't know where to start or even what to do.

I aim to have a practice that views mental health and wellness through a social justice lens that is attentive to issues of race, culture, gender identity and spirituality. I believe that we as humans can turn pain into power (I have experienced this myself)! I also believe that when you feel seen, understood, and safe, healing happens. There are not many places where we can come to be, breathe, and experience unconditional acceptance. Therapy is a place where you can show up as yourself, keep i...
