Constantly coping with trauma, stress, isolation, grief, or substance abuse can make you feel like you are living in "survival mode." Therapy can help you find your way back to the life you want to be living. If you've reached this page, that means you're considering making a change - to better understand yourself, improve your relationships, create new habits, or rediscover your passions. This work can only occur when you feel comfortable and safe with your therapist. That is why I prioritize collaborative, culturally responsive, and patient-centered care.My approach to psychotherapy is grounded in a strong belief that individuals have the ability to recover from trauma, addiction, and mental health conditions. I am committed to using evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help you achieve your goals for mental wellness.While the work of therapy can be challenging, I hope you choose to take this next step towards recovery. It takes strength to make changes in your life and courage to ask for help in doing so. Together, we can help you understand and address your mental health concerns so that you can return to living your life.
