Our experiences shape us and how we look at the world. Oftentimes they give us a sense of strength and direction in our lives, but other times we are confronted with obstacles that keep us from reaching our goals. Together we can explore these obstacles and create a better understanding of how you can work through them, leading to more satisfying experiences and more confidence in your direction in life.

I received my Master’s and doctorate degree in clinical psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology Los Angeles, as well as a master’s degree in public communication from American University.

My work and training along with my own personal experiences has given me empathy and an appreciation for the trauma of everyday life we all must go through. Sometimes these traumas are easy to identify and the path to healing and growth is somewhat clear. But other times, the true causes of our pain are less clear and despite our efforts we cannot alleviate or manage this pain on our own. However, with help, time, and work our trauma can become something we still carry with us, but does not stop us from moving forward.
