Have you ever found yourself standing in the middle of a maze, unsure how you got there, and how to begin finding your way out? As a dually licensed practitioner with over 10 years of experience, I can understand how life's daily challenges, acute and chronic stress, traumatic experiences, and generational trauma can compound on a person, leaving them stranded in a complex maze without a clear path out. Throughout my clinical experience, I have worked with clients struggling with substance abuse/ addiction, acute and chronic stressors, suicidal ideation, family conflict, divorce, and trauma. I have specialized training working with women, young adults and military families, trauma and abuse, family conflict, and co-parenting issues. If you are ready to begin your journey with support, I will work alongside you to make meaningful and sustainable change, help you gain insights to patterns in your behavior, and work towards the life you envision for yourself. You can book with me via my website.

As a counselor, I am committed to providing a safe and empathetic space for students to explore and address a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, addiction, ADHD, career choices, and relationship issues. I have experience working in a college counseling center and am familiar with the unique challenges that college students face. My approach is integrative, drawing from various therapeutic modalities such as acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness-based techniques. By tailoring treatment plans to individual needs, I aim to empower my clients to develop coping skills, enhance self-awareness, and foster resilience in navigating academic, personal, and social stressors. Whether you're struggling with managing emotions, navigating transitions, or facing interpersonal challenges, our sessions will focus on fostering growth, self-compassion, and meaningful connections. I'm pretty shock-proof, I've worked with clients from all walks of life, and I'm human too.

**Current availability! Offering teletherapy and in person sessions!** Helping you break free from trauma and abuse, so you can finally live not just survive. I help adolescents and adults overcome trauma and abuse and find their voice. Are you feeling keyed up, tense and reactive? Feel like you are floating outside of your body or feel like a robot? Not connected to your emotions or the world around you? Does someone in your life make you feel 'crazy' and question your truth? I use CBT and EMDR to help you figure out the root cause to your trauma, worries, stress, or whatever is troubling you at the moment. Negative thoughts shape how we view ourselves and are difficult to change. Memories can be intense, vivid and feel overwhelming. I will help you change your thoughts and move on from negative memories to take your life back!

Hello! Therapy is a personal and supportive relationship and we hope to help you in your process to make you feel comfortable and heard. We focus on trauma-related challenges and can help with anxiety, depression and other life transition needs.

I am committed to working with individuals to assuage the burden of their issues through mutual commitment to their growth. This is sometimes accomplished individually, or, in some cases, as couples work. I further work with young men struggling to establish an identity in the absence of their biological fathers.

With over 15 years of experience as a clinician, I provide a supportive and evidence-based approach to therapy for adults. I recognize that many different circumstances bring someone to therapy, and there’s no one single intervention that works for each person. With that in mind, I value understanding each person‘s history and collaboratively developing a “road map” for meaningful change. Holding a Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas, I have treated a variety of mental health conditions and assisted clients with complex life changes and “seasons”. My approach integrates psychoeducation, skill-building, and validation to empower clients with practical tools for growth. Whether you’re facing emotional struggles, relationship difficulties, or simply seeking personal growth, my goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where healing and progress can occur.

I strongly believe in the potential of human beings to access their inner resources to create change and empower themselves to have the quality of life they want and they deserve. I am a Spanish/English Bilingual Therapist who works with adults. As an immigrant myself, I understand cross-cultural and acculturation situations that hinder daily life due to immigration processes. Part of my focus as a therapist is to comprehend and work with the nuances of different backgrounds and cultural needs. I have been a hypnotherapist for over 14 years. I have extensive training and experience in Traditional and Ericksonian Hypnosis. I also have training in healing emotional wounds through regressive techniques. I truly believe hypnosis is a magnificent technique to help clients reach out their inner resources, create change and empower themselves.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you're carrying stress, uncertainty, or emotional pain. My goal working with clients is to create a supportive, collaborative space where you feel seen, understood, and valued just as you are. I work with clients who are navigating life, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, identity exploration, etc. I take a strengths-based, relational approach to therapy, meaning I focus not only on the difficulties you're facing, but also on the resilience, insight, and abilities you already bring into the room. Together, we build on those strengths to foster growth, healing, and meaningful change. My work is grounded in the belief that healing happens through connection. I prioritize developing a genuine, trusting therapeutic relationship where clients feel safe to explore their experiences at their own pace. I meet you where you are at! As someone who is half Turkish, I also value cultural identity, background, and lived experiences as essential parts of the therapeutic process. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply seeking greater self-understanding, therapy can be a place to find that and I would be honored to support you in that.

Knowing from an early age that I wanted to connect with people on a deeper level, a career in counseling became a must. I was born and grew up in Belgium and moved to the states as a pre-teen, which was a tough transition at times. I quickly discovered my love for connecting with others was no different on the other side of the world. This strengthened my belief that cultural background, race, sex, age, etc does not make a difference in our suffering but that there is hope for each one of us.

This strengthened my belief that cultural background, race, sex, age, etc does not make a difference in our suffering but that there is hope for each one of us. It is my belief that the difficulties that we face stem from our inner dialogue and extreme responses in acknowledgment to triggering situations. It is my goal to help the client explore such thoughts and reactions by developing coping skills and new ways of thinking in order for the client to feel more at ease and happier in life. I previously had the privilege of leading groups for those suffering from alcohol and drug addiction, as well as emotional dysregulation issues, and have discovered an appreciation for walking through such a challenging time with the client. It is my hope to do the same for you.

Relationships are the most rewarding and often the most difficult parts of our lives. If you're struggling in your romantic relationship, friendships, family or even in your relationship with yourself...you're not alone. Negative thoughts and feelings can keep you from the life you want with the people you love. Counseling can give you the support and encouragement you need to help move forward and find new, better ways to communicate and connect. It can be difficult to know who to trust with the things you're going through. Therapy offers you a confidential, comfortable place to talk about the things in your life that are hard to share with others. Together, we can uncover your strengths and use them to create a plan to give you relief from the uncomfortable place you're in today.

Welcome! You are taking a brave first step by seeking therapy. It is natural to want to avoid what is difficult and scary. Unfortunately, this avoidance often reinforces fear and slows healing. My goal is to support you in facing what feels overwhelming at a pace that is safe and sustainable. For the past five years, I have worked primarily with survivors of sexual and relationship abuse, individuals coping with loss, and individuals navigating difficult life transitions. I am passionate about creating a therapeutic space that is safe, warm, and trauma-informed. I utilize a relational-approach informed by evidence-based practice. Some people enter therapy with well-defined goals, while others begin therapy simply with the desire to change. I strive to help you define your individual therapeutic goals and to support you towards these goals at a pace that is comfortable for you. Research has shown that more important to any modality utilized by your therapist is your connection and trust in them. I believe that therapy works best when it is grounded in a genuine and collaborative relationship. I look forward to speaking with you further!
