When my clients first come into the therapy room, they may say: I long for connection but fear being exposed, and it prevents me from pursuing connections. I want to be understood, but often feel like I don’t understand myself. I keep having the same fight with my partner and we are starting to feel exhausted. I always thought something was wrong with me, that I was stupid, but when I realized I have a learning disability, it all made sense. I just don’t know how to integrate this new understanding of myself.
Sometimes all we need is a space where we can unload our burdens and make sense of everything without feeling judged or rushed. My work begins with meeting you where you are so that you can feel more comfortable with being uncomfortable. When working with me, you will learn to communicate and honor your body’s truths, so you can gain clarity and leave behind the confusion.
I’m a compassionate therapist specializing in dating, couples coaching, and late diagnosis of learning disabilities. As a private dating coach, I support individuals of all genders, races, nationalities, and sexual orientations, aged 20-50, seeking casual or serious relationships, regardless of their level of experience or relationship status. I work with couples with differing needs and goals, which can include, opening up their relationship, differing relationship goals, integrating kink, and gaining overall creativity with intimacy. Additionally, as someone with a learning disability myself, I am passionate about my work with individuals who need more guidance with a new learning disability diagnosis.
My approach is primarily integrative and can easily be customized to your goals. I utilize mindfulness, somatic therapy (focusing on the body), and psychodynamic discussions to motivate and challenge you to implement the changes that you desire.
Whether you are wanting to work on your relationship with intimacy as a couple or as a single individual, struggling with a new learning disability diagnosis, or are looking to understand yourself better and play an active role in developing a new narrative that feels more genuine— rest assured that there is nothing too big to work through.

Are feeling overwhelmed with emotions and find it difficult to get through your day-to-day tasks? Do you feel activities that used to excite and motivate you? By listening to those feelings we can better understand them and develop the necessary insight in navigating the uncertainties that come with them. If these questions resonate with you, I invite you to acknowledge them and begin your therapy journey today.
I believe that acknowledging these feelings we can build courage to create new patterns of healing and living. With clients in the driver seat of their healing journey, safe spaces are created via compassion, and understanding. All of which helps clients to develop self-awareness, self-compassion, self-worth, acceptance, healthy relationships and a greater satisfaction with life.
Therapy is a process that we must commit to and trust, and your being here is not coincidence. Taking the first step to reach out is always the most difficult, but I am here to help you navigate therapy. If my Approach resonates with you, I encourage you to reach out.

Not where you thought you’d be by now? Is anxiety, self-doubt and your past holding you back from the life, relationships, or success that you want?
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected,vstressed, or defeated, let’s talk. We’ll explore the experiences and family patterns that have shaped your sense of self, affected how you relate to others, impacted what you’ve come to expect and allow in your life, and influenced how you handle it all. Through this therapeutic process, I will help you create a new, more empowering story to close the gap between where you are now and where you want to be. My goal is to create a dedicated, intentional, nurturing, and unconditionally accepting space for you that supports your healing, growth, and the development of your authentic voice and vision.
My approach is collaborative and results-oriented, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), attachment theory, mindfulness, and psychodynamic techniques to help you gain clarity, insight, and the courage to take new action in your life. We can also incorporate your spirituality. We’ll work together to design an individualized treatment plan to transform your inner and outer life, move you from struggle to strength, and develop the skills to not just cope but thrive.
My passion for this work is in helping you to achieve breakthroughs as well as evolve the way you see and connect to yourself, your power, and your possibilities. In so doing, you’ll create greater joy, freedom, success, and inner peace in your personal and professional life.

Do you feel extremely overwhelmed and are unable to strike a balance between your personal and professional life? Do you feel isolated and disconnected and find it challenging to talk about it? Support is an essential tool, however starting your therapeutic journey can be daunting and finding an ‘ideal’ therapist can be equally difficult.

I obtained my Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Guyana and I earned my Master’s in Health Services Management from the Keller Graduate School of Management.
I bring a wealth of knowledge and 8 years of experience in outpatient services management and have worked closely with health care providers, patients, and clients in diversified and multicultural settings.
As we strive to provide the best care possible for our clients, I take great pride in providing clarity on our practice’s policies and services. I love helping our clients as they take important steps in their mental wellbeing journey.
Are you experiencing relationship problems or struggling to connect with your most authentic self? Do you feel stuck in a loop of negative self-talk, worries, and low motivation?
Are transitions or stressors affecting your ability to enjoy your life?
These issues may translate into diminished self-worth and a lack of confidence. You might have difficulty communicating or fall into toxic patterns that keep you away from your goals.
But you are not on your own.
Therapy can help you discover the root of your concerns, process past experiences, and shift harmful behaviors for a happier future. You’ll increase your awareness, adopt effective coping strategies, and learn how to regulate your emotions to navigate the ups and downs of your journey.
Growing up as a first-generation Indian in Australia allowed me to understand the concept of intersectionality and its impact on our well-being. I became a therapist because I wanted to destigmatize mental health in South Asian communities and use my career to speak up about “taboo” subjects like grief, sex, relationships, and many more.
Unique approach
Being born in India, raised in Australia, and educated in the United Kingdom, I have seen how culture and social differences influence behavior. My multicultural identities and experiences have taught me how to engage with people from different walks of life and create a unique connection with each client.
I’ll tailor my work to your background, needs, and values, striving to create a warm and trusted environment. I’ll support you in overcoming adversity while challenging you to think critically and mindfully.

Want to work with Anha?
Reach out to start therapy with me.
You may feel depleted by the pressures of growing responsibilities and everyday life.
You might be grappling with prioritizing yourself—your dreams, beliefs, and wellness—amid conflicting stressors and demands.
You give, give, give, and often receive little in return. And at times, you might feel a little selfish for wanting to fill your cup before someone else’s.
Yet, you do come first.
Therapy allows you to shed your armors and reconnect with your needs, wants, and power to show up for yourself. I’ll help you find your voice, challenge your inner critic, and develop your self-worth. We’ll dismantle the relationship between your worth and achievements, set realistic boundaries, and improve your communication skills so you can become who you want to be.
I became a therapist fueled by my curiosity to understand how people conceptualize their livelihoods and worldview.
Unique approach
As a Biracial, cis-gendered, Caribbean, and first-generation American woman, I’m particularly attuned to how cultural beliefs, traditions, and roles can influence our lives. I also acknowledge the stressors caused by systemic structures, social norms, and expectations. I work through a multicultural and feminist lens, offering a restorative place where marginalized communities can cultivate safety and joy.
I aim to deconstruct the notion that, as a professional, “I know best.” Instead, I approach each client as an enthusiastic learner. I’ll empower you to lead the way and celebrate your uniqueness, hoping to foster a healing experience you can recreate outside the therapy room.

I work with individuals from various linguistic, religious, and cultural backgrounds, from Southeastern Asia to the Caribbean and the Americas. I’m passionate about serving young, professional BIPOC women, first-generation Americans, and immigrants.

Want to work with Mabel?
Let’s talk about how I can help you.
The work of getting to know ourselves more deeply is courageous, and I truly believe that we don’t have to do it alone.
My mission is to help women of color and queer folks peel back the layers of life that are weighing on them, live more balanced lives, and as a result, have more fulfilling relationships with others and themselves.
I became a therapist to help people feel seen, heard, and connected. I want you to know that it’s okay to experience and express your emotions and that you are not “too much.” We are all humans simply doing our best.
Our first step in this journey together will be starting to explore what is weighing on you. Sometimes we have an idea of what that may be and other times we may not, both are normal places to be. I love supporting individuals in gaining clarity into how their past is impacting their present. As well as helping them to have more relief from their thoughts, feel more present, and be empowered to take helpful steps in the present.
By the end of our work, you’ll have a deepened understanding of how your past is impacting your present. Learned how to identify how you’re feeling in the present. Be equipped with tangible tools to manage how you’re feeling. Identify boundaries that may be helpful to set with others and yourself. And overall feel more empowered and balanced.
Unique approach
My approach is authentic, warm, interactive, and compassionate. I see therapy as a relationship where we work together to help you reach your goals.
I will meet you where you are to cultivate a safe healing space. This allows you to be your whole self and open up as we gently peel back some of the layers that may be weighing on you.
Specialties
I work with adults from multiple backgrounds, identities, and cultures. I am passionate about holding space for women of color, queer folks and first generation americans.

Get in touch to see if we’re a good fit!
Are you experiencing emotional unrest? Have you been dealing with negative self-talk or low self-worth? Is intense and persistent fear keeping you from a blissful life?
Traumatic memories may still be alive in you. You might struggle with ripples of despair and hopelessness without a clear reason. And despite your best efforts, you can’t seem to find the ease or motivation to carry on.
I’m here to help you recognize and process these challenging thoughts, emotions, and unresolved events to embrace your journey with acceptance and compassion. We’ll work on relieving your symptoms, addressing your unique problems, and turning hardship into opportunities to grow.
I chose a career in therapy to lessen the stigma associated with it within the African- American and people-of-color communities.
Unique approach
I strive to maintain an individualized and culturally sensitive approach tailored to your needs. We’ll collaborate to gain a deep understanding of your past and present experiences and what you hope to achieve in the future, so you can take the necessary steps to get there.
I’ll meet you where you are in your path, willing to walk alongside you instead of judging you or telling you what to do. I’ll accept you and help you accept yourself as you travel through your chapters.

Want to work with Kimberly?
Reach out to schedule an appointment with me.
Do you ruminate about or pre-plan situations to the tiniest detail? Are you struggling with perfectionism, letting go of control, or a piercing need for reassurance? Have you been harboring open wounds, feeling hopeless, and longing for relief?
Stressors, past experiences, and relationship problems can leave you scarred and disconnected, preventing you from being present and overcoming obstacles in your life.
What if you could learn to self-regulate, tame the distressing waves, and mend your relationships? What if you could give yourself the reassurance you seek in others to feel better in your skin? That’s what I’m here for.
We’ll collaborate to help you become aware of your thoughts and emotions, work through them, and develop a stronger connection with yourself and others. You’ll gain insight into underlying concerns, challenge negative beliefs, and make meaningful changes to heal and grow.
I became a therapist because I’ve always enjoyed creating space for others during their most difficult times. Many pull away or get uncomfortable by people’s emotional states, but I’ve always leaned in.
Unique approach
I follow an integrative, trauma-focused, and mind-body approach. My goal is to understand your unique perspective, history, and relational patterns to meet you where you are and tailor a plan according to your needs.
I strive to bring compassion and empathy to our sessions, fostering a safe and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard. I also lead with authenticity to promote a non-stuffy, sometimes even humorous, and light atmosphere. And when it comes to mindfulness or meditation, I can turn even the wariest individuals into believers and am up for the challenge!
Specialties
I have experience treating individuals from diverse backgrounds who are facing troubling emotions and unresolved pain. I particularly enjoy working with those struggling with anxiety, relationship issues, and children of emotionally immature parents who are now struggling as adults.

Want to work with Ivy?
Reach out to book a session with me!
I hold the belief that everyone can benefit from therapy. Therapy is not just for those who are severely “mentally ill” or struggling. The therapy room can be a safe space for you to explore and get to know the more vulnerable, intimate, and darker parts of yourself.
Growing up in the Arab world and being aware of the scarcity of adequate mental health professionals, in addition to the heavy stigma placed on mental health, led me to my path to becoming a therapist. As a teenager struggling with my mental health and multiple identities, I found no one to turn to. Thus, I made it my mission to become a resource for those who are struggling to feel understood.
Today, I work with adult women of color in unpacking and processing traumas, whilst they navigate the many facets of their complex identity. Oftentimes, I find that my clients struggle with people-pleasing and perfectionism, which makes it very difficult to set boundaries and know their worth. You may find it hard to take up space and advocate for yourself in different settings due to conflicting narratives and unresolved traumas.
Therapy can be a space where you finally take ownership of your narrative, reframe your story, and find new ways to move past your stuck points. I’m here to guide you on this journey of self-discovery so you can feel more confident, meet your own needs, and find security in your relationships. Therapy is a space where we can uncover the truths behind why we think, behave, and feel the way we do. I’ll support you by gently nudging and challenging you to align yourself with your values.
Unique approach
I operate from a multicultural and feminist lens, affirming the cultural nuances in your narratives and highlighting how oppressive systems of sexism and patriarchy manifest in your relationship with yourself and others. I also recognize the intersections of multiple identities within your therapeutic journey. I am psychodynamically inclined, which means I help make the unconscious more conscious, as we connect how events of the past are influencing the present.
Specialties
I work with adult women (mostly in their 20s and early 30s), more specifically women of color (e.g., Arab, South Asian, East Asian, Black, and Latinx). I grew up Muslim, so I have a deep understanding of the experience of religious minorities and marginalized communities.
I provide individual and group therapy in English and Arabic, in-person and/or online.

Have you been to therapy but you keep finding yourself stuck, preventing you from reaching your goals. You may find yourself feeling more on edge and overwhelmed throughout the day, despite the behavioral changes you have been working on. Maybe your tolerance levels for others are low and your reactions are high, even though you have been consistent with your yoga practice and meditations. Feelings of hopelessness, shame and inadequacy may be rising up regardless of your daily positive affirmations.
When you are feeling stuck, it may be time to try a different approach—targeting your thoughts, body and emotions. Together, you will learn to self-regulate, relieve your symptoms, and increase your confidence and self-worth in order to embody your authentic self. We’ll work together to heal your past so you can ground yourself in the present and reach future goals.
I have always had a deep curiosity and compassion for others. I value the human experience and the power and ability to heal oneself.
Unique approach
The effects of our past experiences reside in our body. Thinking your way through an emotional experience will only get you so far—you have to feel your way through, in order to complete the body and brain’s natural way of healing. I’m committed to helping you become aware of, attune with, and address your whole self—in order to feel more power and strengthen your own internal resources.
I use a trauma-informed, holistic, integrative approach, combining practical tools with your strengths and ability to facilitate self healing. You’ll enter a non-judgmental and collaborative space to look inward, work through your problems, and implement meaningful changes in your life.
Specialties
I work with women, in all stages of life, who are ready to release negative/limiting beliefs, navigate through feelings of stuckness, and access an authentic sense of self. I’m especially interested in working with trauma (PTSD, perinatal trauma, complex/childhood trauma, attachment trauma, and sexual assault). I also work with women who are in the Orthodox Jewish community and seeking relationship and fertility/perinatal support and/or trauma work.

Want to work with Tamar?
Reach out to embark on a healing journey!
Are you struggling with negative thoughts, distressing emotions, or painful experiences? Do you struggle to set boundaries with family and friends? Or are you looking for guidance to navigate your multicultural identity?
Anxiety, depression, and trauma can impair your ability to live an authentic and abundant life. Traversing the expectations and nuances of different cultures may be confusing and exhausting. And the need to do it all or please everyone might feed your inner critical voice and debilitate your self-worth.
If any of this sounds familiar, you are not alone.
Therapy is a major step in exploring and expressing difficult thoughts and emotions. It offers support, direction, and tools to manage your unique challenges and forge a path forward. Through this process, you’ll gain confidence and compassion, learn how to set assertive boundaries with people around you, and discover your genuine self so you can share it with the world.
Seeing my clients work hard on improving their mental health and witnessing their growth is such a fulfilling experience. You are brave for being here, willing to embark on this healing journey, and I’m honored to be part of it.
Unique approach
My integrative approach centers on drawing from different modalities and techniques to best serve you. I strive to create a supportive environment and provide valuable insight to help you find the clarity you seek and achieve your goals.

Do you wrestle with stress, worries, or overwhelming emotions? Are you afraid of being yourself because you might be judged or misunderstood? Or are you seeking guidance to change your life?
We all have our unique narratives, fears, and challenges. And we all deserve a chance to understand them, get to know ourselves, heal and move forward.
Therapy can help you gain personal insight to embrace your true self and achieve authentic happiness. You’ll broaden your perspective to recognize the thoughts and emotions driving your behaviors, view your difficulties with compassion, and foster shifts to improve your well-being.
I became a psychotherapist to learn more about myself and help people like you do the same. I want to dismantle the stigma around mental health as I support others on their journey of unfolding, realignment, and transformation.
Besides being a counselor, I’m also a dedicated Jiu-jitsu practitioner. Maintaining inside space is paramount while “grappling” in this martial art. Once this space is compromised, everything we do is dictated by an external force, rendering all decisions reactive rather than intentional. Psychotherapy is similar to grappling as we are defining, understanding, and managing our inside space.
Unique approach
My approach is eclectic, client-centered, and focused on holistic practices and mind-body wellness. I acknowledge the impact of your life experiences and aim to awaken your genuine self with all its beauty and complexity.
The client-therapist relationship is my priority. We’ll collaborate to increase your awareness, quiet the constant stream of consciousness, and help you find inner peace.
Specialties
I serve young adults (ages 18-24) and adults (ages 24+). I support them in navigating stress, existential crises, emotion regulation, adjustments to change, non-mainstream and alternative lifestyles, self-worth, societal pressures and other challenges while cultivating self-care and the mind-body connection.

Want to work with Camille?
Let’s talk to see how we can work together.
We all go through challenges or painful experiences that seem impossible to conquer.
You might have endured a loss or critical life event that left lingering traces on your path. You may end or enter a new relationship or chapter that overwhelms you.
You know something is off but are unclear about what needs to change or what to do next. And without noticing it, you may have adopted unwanted behaviors and narratives that push you away from your goals.
If you are looking for perspective, support, and skills to feel better, I can help. Our work will focus on gaining insight into your struggles and finding sustainable relief. You will learn how to express and regulate difficult thoughts and emotions, recognize your strengths and how your past might affect your present, and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others.
I studied psychology because I was interested in understanding myself and the world around me. Human behavior, development, and relationships truly intrigued me. I then became a therapist to put this knowledge into practice, be of service to others, and ensure people were not suffering alone.
Unique approach
My therapeutic style is warm, direct, exploratory, and often humorous. I adjust treatment to your individual needs, seeking to understand challenges in the context of your lived experiences and helping you shift the patterns holding you back.
I’m dedicated to fostering an interactive space where you feel safe to take emotional risks and appreciate your unique story.

Want to work with Janna?
Let’s chat to see how I can support you.
Feeling disconnected or at odds with yourself can be debilitating. You may wrestle with self-doubt, hopelessness, or anger. You might engage in disruptive relational patterns or face challenges in your relationships. Or you may endure overwhelming thoughts and emotions you don’t know how to handle.
If you struggle to comprehend, develop, or ground who you are, I can help you. Therapy is a collaborative space to get to know your authentic self, answer your questions, and alleviate your symptoms. We’ll review how your experiences may have impacted your current emotions or habits, explore your identity, and build your confidence and self-worth to make meaningful changes.
I entered the mental health field to help people understand and strengthen their relationship with themselves. My journey as an Indian raised in the Middle East and an international student in the U.S.” led to a particular interest in identity development within a non-native culture. I value the opportunity to examine this in my work with immigrants, children of immigrants, and multicultural individuals.
Unique approach
I follow a person-centered approach. Everyone is capable of growth and transformation, and the bond between therapist and client is vital to make that happen.
I also practice with a multicultural lens and psychodynamic foundation. I’ll help you navigate the intersection of your identities and gain insight into your relationship with yourself, your culture, your environment, and the people in your life.

You may be considering a career change, becoming a parent, or navigating a breakup. Or perhaps you suffered a loss or emotional wound you’d like to mend.
Therapy facilitates self-awareness to rediscover your purpose and move toward your goals. I’m here to support you to recognize patterns, break unhelpful habits, and open new pathways to improve your well-being.
I became a psychologist because I enjoy helping others identify their strengths and create meaning in their lives. I’m thankful for the opportunity to empower people like you to take a step back, reflect, and map out your future.
Unique approach
I follow a relational approach and view our interpersonal experience in session as a key to understanding your world. I believe all emotions are data, and all behavior is the communication of such data.
I encourage open conversations, allowing you to guide the therapeutic process because it belongs to you. Our collaboration and partnership will also e essential to achieving results.

Want to work with Devorah?
Contact us to learn more about how I can help you!
Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unhappy? Are you wrestling with stress, shame, or relationship conflict? Or are you constantly looking to balance your and others’ expectations?
You may try to please everyone and set impossible standards for yourself, which affects your energy and self-worth. So you engage in behaviors that provide short-term comfort but not the peace of mind you crave.
While starting therapy is not always easy, it’s a courageous step to find the lasting relief you seek. I offer a safe and non-critical environment to help you reach your goals—whether that’s managing worry and stress, setting boundaries, treating yourself with compassion, exploring your identity, maintaining healthy relationships, and more.
I became a therapist to hold space for people like you, someone with a unique story who’s going through a difficult time or wants to work through specific challenges. Everyone deserves the opportunity to feel heard, gain insight, and learn tools to improve their lives.
Unique approach
My approach is validating and sensitive, yet assertive. I infuse my sense of humor as warranted, understanding there’s room for smiles and laughter in a serious therapy experience. I’ll support you, invite you to notice, and encourage you to take pride in your efforts and successes.
I bring my genuine self into our sessions and strive to make you feel comfortable so you can speak your mind. Although I’m here to guide you, your insights and feedback are essential for a collaborative therapeutic relationship.
Specialties
I work with adults of all ages and demographics, and I especially appreciate serving the college-aged population. Given my faith, I also have a nuanced understanding of the Orthodox Jewish community—but I won’t integrate faith into our sessions unless requested.

Are you searching for your authentic self or longing for a purpose? You may look for answers in the wrong places or get used to dimming your light to please others—which leaves you feeling afraid, confused, and burdened. You might struggle to understand or express your emotions and crave a safe space to let go of stressors, demands, and expectations.
If all this sounds familiar, you are not alone. I know what it feels like to walk around thinking, “you are not enough,” putting on a mask, and pushing through the pain.
But you are worthy of peace.
Therapy can help you gain confidence, autonomy, and practical skills to find freedom from internal and external pressures and love yourself again. I’m here to guide you to explore, heal, and discover your true self and purpose, so you can take off that mask and enjoy your life.
I pursued a career in mental health because I’m passionate about helping others become aware of and reach their full potential. I also appreciate the bi-directional learning process that comes with being a therapist.
Unique approach
My treatment approach is catered to your specific needs and concerns. I aim to provide an affirming, inspiring, and open environment to get you closer to your goals.

Are you experiencing work stress, confidence issues, or relationship anxiety? Are worries and intrusive thoughts making you restless during the day or keeping you up at night? Or are you wrestling with prenatal, postpartum, or other maternal mental health challenges?
You may be trying to balance your roles as a woman, mom, partner, and professional. The requests and expectations of others may weigh heavily on you, taking a toll on your ability to meet your needs and take care of yourself and your loved ones.
I understand life may demand so much of you. But I also know you have the power to reclaim your light, and I’m here to help you do just that.
My goal is to support you in advocating and setting boundaries for yourself, your relationships, and your workplace. You will gain a better understanding of your struggles, reduce stress and anxiety, increase confidence, and form stronger bonds. I’m here to listen, validate your journey, and offer concrete tools and resources.

Are you struggling to be your authentic self while trying to meet the expectations of others? Have you suffered emotional wounds that are keeping you from appreciating and living your life?
You may spend so much time taking care of others that you often put yourself in the backseat. You may feel the pressure to overcompensate, sacrifice yourself, or bend over backwards for others while foregoing your own interests and wants. You may have heard of boundaries, but asserting those can be incredibly challenging. So conflict, distress, guilt, and critical narratives may overwhelm you.
I became a therapist to help people like you examine their patterns and create positive, sustainable, and meaningful change. I offer a space free from judgment and greet you with compassion, humor, and a bit of sarcastic wit. You will learn to recognize and meet your needs, heal your wounds, and adopt healthier boundaries and coping strategies that feel true to you.
Unique approach
I grew up in the Middle East, Central America, Canada, and the U.S. and have deep South Asian influences, being Indian myself, so I understand the cultural and systemic nuances you may endure.

Are you struggling to embrace your cultural identity? Do you find it difficult to be kind and gracious to yourself? Are past events or interpersonal issues keeping you from reaching your goals?
These challenges might bring self-critical thoughts and distressing emotions, impacting your ability to function and succeed. And although it might seem scary or unnecessary, seeking help to understand your inner world is the first step toward healing.
Together, we can examine your thoughts, feelings, and experiences to identify behavior and relationship patterns. We’ll connect the dots, shift problematic practices, and find better ways to manage your symptoms. You’ll gain valuable insight, reclaim ownership of your journey, and form healthier relationships.
I was quite curious about the human mind when I was young. This led me to study psychology, where I was impressed by the power of psychotherapy. I decided to become a therapist so I could help others harness this power and improve their lives.
Unique approach
I’m keenly aware of the importance of culturally sensitive treatment and committed to providing it. I strive to foster a compassionate and non-judgmental healing environment where we can safely explore your identity, culture, and values.
Above all, I’m dedicated to helping you expand your understanding of yourself, your strengths, and your potential to facilitate positive change.

Becoming a therapist has been my plan since grade school, and I’m glad I was able to foster my skillset and continue on that path to work with individuals like you. I’m a huge self-care advocate, so my me-time is precious! I hope to help you reclaim yours as well.

Despite the many challenges life may bring, I want to remind you that you possess strength and resiliency.
You may not believe you do. Yet you are here, taking a brave step towards positive change. And that’s where healing begins.
You might be experiencing relationship or family problems, struggle with negative thoughts, or resort to unhealthy coping mechanisms. You may have been exposed to trauma that remains unresolved.

In the end, you will feel empowered to heal past sorrows, navigate current stressors, and live your life on your terms.

I learned about psychology in 4th grade and decided that’s what I wanted to do when I grew up! I always found human behavior fascinating and was told I had an innate ability to understand others’ emotions. I wanted to be a child psychologist. Yet, during my doctorate program, I realized I could see the inner child in most adults—so I decided to serve both.
Unique approach
My style is casual and warm, with a sprinkle of humor. I strive to practice from a client-centered and strength-based approach, tailoring treatment to your unique abilities, needs, and values. I take the time to appreciate your culture and family structure to see how they may impact your well-being.

Are you a middle-aged professional who’s thought about therapy, but perhaps been unsure of or felt undeserving of it in the past? Do you want to change negative thoughts and behaviors, but have had difficulty doing so, don’t know where to start, or don’t believe you can? Do you desire to feel more confident in yourself and in your life?
You may constantly question yourself and your decisions, accommodating others and neglecting your needs. You might be dissatisfied with your relationships, family, work, and even yourself, but you don’t know what to do about it. Or perhaps you are so scared of not taking the right step that you avoid taking any, so growth becomes incredibly challenging.
While obstacles are a natural part of everyone’s life journey, you deserve the opportunity to examine the emotional and mental blocks that may prevent you from living fully. Therapy offers a safe space to explore yourself deeply, learn valuable skills to help you move forward, and gain acceptance of the past. I’m here to help you rediscover your worth and reconnect with your mind and body, so you feel confident in yourself, your life choices, relationships, and path.

Whether you are facing interpersonal problems, carrying unresolved trauma, dealing with racial stress, burnout, or other issues, you belong here. This is your place to feel valued and heard. You’ll learn to recognize and communicate your needs, build confidence and self-compassion, and prioritize yourself without guilt.

Our therapy service offers a non-judgmental and confidential space where you can explore the underlying causes of self-destructive behavior, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and build a strong support system for lasting change.

Losing a loved one can be one of life’s most difficult experiences, leaving you feeling lost, overwhelmed, and alone.
Do I need Grief Therapy?
Grief is a normal, healthy response to loss.
We feel hurt, sad, afraid, and lonely when we lose someone because of how much we cared about them. Everyone experiences grief in their own way – some will feel the pain of grief for a few days, some for a few months, and others will continue to grieve for years.
Sometimes the grieving process is delayed. The feelings of loss may not set in for a period of time, only to emerge once our caretaking responsibilities have ended.
In some cases, grief can happen around other types of loss. The loss of one’s health, loss of career or educational opportunity, loss of a role (e.g., being a parent), and so forth. We might grieve the life we once had and the future we looked forward to having.
No matter what brought about your grief, and no matter how long you’ve been struggling with the loss, therapy can help – especially if the grief process has become unhealthy or dysfunctional. Some common indicators of potentially unhealthy grief might include:
Our therapy service for grief and loss is designed to provide a safe and compassionate space where you can process your emotions, find meaning and purpose in your loss, and develop effective coping strategies to navigate your grief journey.
We’re here to support you every step of the way as you heal and begin to find hope and peace again.

Trauma can have a profound and lasting impact on a person’s life, making it difficult to function and thrive.
Trauma can come from anywhere, and not all causes of trauma affect everyone the same way.
Some of the most common causes include: Sexual assault, Physical assault, Childhood abuse (sexual, physical, emotional), Experiencing or witnessing domestic violence, Car accidents, Death of a loved one, Serious medical complications, Military combat, Surviving torture, Religious trauma and spiritual distress, or even witnessing one of these things happening to someone else.
Much like throwing a stone into still water, the initial shock sends ripples out that affect other parts of life. Posttraumatic stress affects your entire person, derails your ability to trust others, negatively affects your capacity to manage your emotions, and affects your capacity to function and be happy.
Recovering from trauma is a unique and personal journey. Let’s Talk team of diverse and experienced therapists help individuals from all walks of life to heal from a variety of traumatic experiences, including those related to generational patterns, race, gender, sexuality, and more.
