I’ve found that experience has indeed been the best teacher both professionally and on deeply personal level.

Throughout my career as a public servant, I have had the priveledge to serve at-risk youth, individuals, and families, helping them navigate unimaginable circumstances, for over 18 years. I am endlessly inspired by unmatched resilience at every turn. Hope, with no evidence of its existence and was moved to dig deeper. Tapping in to the ups and downs of relationships, complicated family dynamics, and at times, deep-rooted trauma that defies the notion of hope and often blurs any vision of “normal”…whatever that is.

Ask me how I know.

As a therapist, my approach is simple: no masks and no judgment—just real, authentic conversations that help you move forward.

Leading with compassion, I have a sincere interest and absolute respect for your unique experiences. I am compelled to offer empathy, an open mind, and sound clinical expertise.

As for my “why”… Because noone should suffer in silence.

The mental health crisis is ever present. This reality drives my passion and intent to decrease stigma while breaking generational and systemic barriers. In creating this safe space for people to be seen, heard and discover hope, I’ve humbly accepted the charge to fight for my family and yours.

Needing help isn’t cause for shame. I’m here for you, one day, one hour, one moment at a time.

You matter.
