I am a dedicated mental health therapist committed to helping individuals navigate their unique life challenges and achieve emotional well-being. My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, active listening, and a deep understanding of human behavior. With a background in social work, I bring a holistic perspective to my practice, recognizing that mental health is intricately connected to various aspects of our lives, including relationships, environment, and personal history.

I offer Telehealth Services for individuals who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and issues related to life transitions. My therapeutic style is collaborative and client-centered, meaning I work closely with you to understand your needs, goals, and personal strengths. Together, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to uncover patterns that may hold you back, and develop practical strategies to promote positive change.

Empowering You to Achieve Happiness

School Age concerns

I offer vital support during the emotionally challenging process of marital separation. These services include individual counseling for adults and children, providing a safe space to process feelings of grief, anger, and loss. These services aim to promote healing, assist in the transition to a new life chapter, and help individuals and families rebuild stability and well-being post-divorce.

School Age concerns

I focus on addressing the unique challenges children and adolescents face in their academic and social environments. My services include individual counseling, school-based interventions, and group therapy, aimed at supporting students struggling with issues like anxiety, academic stress, peer relationships, and behavioral problems. I work closely with parents, teachers, and school counselors to develop tailored strategies that promote emotional resilience, improve coping skills, and enhance academic performance.

Bullying

My services often include individual counseling, group therapy, and school-based programs that teach coping strategies, resilience, advocacy, and empathy. I help victims rebuild self-esteem and manage the emotional impact of bullying. For those who engage in bullying, interventions aim to modify aggressive behavior and improve social skills. By fostering a supportive environment and promoting positive peer interactions, these services help reduce the prevalence of bullying and its long-term psychological effects.

I provide essential support to individuals experiencing the profound emotional pain that accompanies losing a loved one. I offer a safe space to express emotions, process the stages of grief, and develop coping strategies. Access to these services can help individuals navigate the complexities of grief, ultimately fostering healing and adjustment to life after loss.

Relational Aggression

Addressing relational aggression focuses on helping individuals understand and manage the subtle, often covert behaviors that harm social relationships, such as gossip, exclusion, or manipulation. For children and adolescents, therapy can be particularly effective, providing education and support to reduce relational aggression and promote positive social dynamics.
