My background working in finance gave me a clear perspective on what it is I want to do in life: make a difference helping individuals. My experiences have given me a unique first-hand perspective when helping my clients deal with the high-stress nature of a professional career. My goal is to empower you to understand yourself better, heal from past wounds, and develop the tools needed to lead a fulfilling life.

Approaching our collaboration with an open mind, dedication, and passion is vital for unlocking your full potential. Vulnerability is not easy for anyone. I believe in the strength and resilience within each person, and I work collaboratively with you to create an individualized path to healing. Together, we'll explore the root causes of your struggles, uncover patterns that no longer serve you, and help you build a life that aligns with your true self.

Finding the right therapist can be a challenging task for many people. I strive to be understanding, compassionate, and comprehensive in my approach. I tailor your therapy to fit your needs and set goals collaboratively so our work is meaningful and progress feels attainable.

I have extensive experience working with children, individuals, and couples. Building trust and connection is key to helping you understand your emotions, behaviors, and physiological sensations. From there, we work together to develop ways to improve the different facets of your life.

My work with individuals includes relieving stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma-informed work, and managing a work-life balance. I utilize a variety of approaches, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Memory Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Gottman Couple’s Therapy.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and Marketing from DePaul University in Chicago, Illinois, and a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University.

I encourage you to call or email me, and rest assured, I will return your call or email within 24 hours.
