The anxiety that seems to follow you everywhere you go. Sleepless nights are becoming the norm, and it wasn’t supposed to be this way. As messy as life gets at times, none of us are equipped to do this...

Coming into a therapeutic environment is courageous and speaks volumes of your strength and resiliency. As quoted by Abraham Maslow, “In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.” This is your first step into growth! Therapy is a sanctuary where you can feel safe, seen, heard, and valued. My mission is to provide a calm, empathic, and nurtur...
