Multiculturally aware, bilingual, independently licensed mental health therapist who understands that compassion and relationship building are at the core of the healing process. I am a trauma-informed, dialectical, and person-centered clinician who believes in both practical and deeply, emotionally based healing processes. I am a graduate of John Carroll University and have 9 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with clients in various community mental health settings with problems ranging from situational life stress to severe mental illness. Some special interests include: PTSD and trauma related disorders, anxiety disorders, life transitions, parenting issues, existential issues, couples counseling and personality disorders. I have also completed multiple research projects focusing on anxiety and the efficacy of different treatment modalities. I possess the skills, expertise and compassion to help individuals with a wide range of issues or concerns. I take a person-centered approach, where I work on building a strong therapeutic relationship with each client in order to help them reach their greatest potential and work towards reaching their goals. I believe that connection and relationship are the two foundations to personal growth. The strength of the relationship is based on my ability to maintain a non-judgmental, trusting and validating environment for the client while encouraging growth. My techniques include an integrative approach, combining multiple techniques, with an emphasis on Mindfulness-based techniques and DBT skills.

"Not Your Typical Psychotherapist" Ready to face your problems head-on? If you're tired of sugar-coated therapy that doesn't get to the heart of the matter, I'm here to call it like it is. No fluff, no pretending. Just straight talk, deep dives, and real healing. I'll challenge you to do the work, to face the parts of you that are messy, broken, and in pain. But I'll be there every step of the way, with compassion, empathy, and a no-judgment zone. You'll have to show up for yourself—no one can do that for you—but I'll be right by your side, pushing you to be the best version of you, no matter how tough it gets. This isn't about easy answers. This is about transformation. And if you're ready to dive in, I'm ready to go there with you. Let's make it happen.
