One of the most courageous things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Reaching out for therapy is the first step to embarking on the therapeutic process. Therapy is a collaborative relationship, with the client in the driver’s seat. It is possible to live more openly, freely, honestly, and authentically.

Are you a new or expecting mother looking for support during this transitional time? Have you been (over)prepped for the birth of your child, but not for what happens after? The Mother Birth acknowledges that your baby is not the only one with a brand new life.

I believe that we as individuals inherently hold the wisdom of who we are and what we need. As life happens we can forget the powerful beings we innately are and lose our sense of self. Sometimes we may fragment parts of ourselves due to relationships, insecurities, societal expectations, trauma and more. My goal is to create a warm and trusting environment to help you gain insight into why you...
Life is both beautiful and terrible. The human experience presents opportunities, obstacles and constant change. Oftentimes, the challenges we face are overwhelming and prevent us from seeing the possibility for growth, while the pace of living interferes with our ability to stay focused on the present moment where creative possibility abides. The distractions we all use to keep us from pain do...

If you are trying to change a pattern or unhealthy cycle, I can help you explore underlying beliefs and narratives. And then, we can work at your pace to explore solutions to change and grow. In...

*I am not currently accepting new clients.* In my practice, I welcome people from all walks of life and have had the privilege of working with a diverse clientele. I offer a compassionate demeanor, nonjudgmental attitude, and a safe environment for processing. Sometimes we need to take a “deep dive” into our history to figure out why things are the way they are. Other times, we need to learn...
I specialize in supporting clients who struggle with feeling connected to themselves and their loved ones, who feel lost, overwhelmed, or stuck. Low self-worth/esteem, unresolved pain or relationship issues, guilt, shame, and beliefs that keep you small, can be hard to change on your own. They often lead to symptoms of anxiety, depression, anger, over-functioning/perfectionism, or shutting down...
I am devoted to working with individuals who are curious about when and how their suffering and emotional distress began. In my work, I notice that such suffering is often the result of long established patterns of thinking and acting. Such patterns were at one time essential for the individual to cope with distress but with repetition and the accumulation of life experiences, they can become...
I provide individual psychotherapy and my primary areas of focus include anxiety, stress, depression, and substance use issues.

I have experience working in a variety of academic and mental health settings including university health centers, community mental health centers, and residential and publ...

Your life is mostly together, but you're dealing with anxiety, low-self esteem, or negative self-talk pretty regularly. Maybe you feel like it's hard to form relationships with others around you. There's a chance social media makes you feel you're not good enough. Maybe y...
Do you feel constantly overwhelmed by the stress and heartbreak of everyday life (especially during COVID)? Does the pain you see at work, at school, or in your personal relationships threaten to steal your capacity for joy and peace? Have you experienced profound loss or trauma that makes it difficult to believe in any good in the world? Mark Epstein writes, "When we stop distancing ourselves...
Dr. Walker states, "It is my belief that counseling is a journey in which we (i.e., therapist and client) walk together to help the client with whatever issues they may be faced with along the way. As a cis-woman of color who has worked with a wide array of diverse clients, I believe that I am in a position to provide quality, inclusive mental health services to ALL people, regardless of...

I frequently work with adults and college students who are struggling with anger, anxiety/panic, depression, relationship difficulties, sexual concerns, and distress related to family and life transitions. I also have significant experience working with...
