Licensed Master Level Psychologist (LMLP), Psychologist
If you're looking for psychological testing, I'm your person! I provide affirming care to all and tailor testing & therapy to your individual needs.
Feeling exhausted with low motivation and trouble focusing? I’m here to help! One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your story. Therapy does not have to be one sided nor an uncomfortable experience. Finding the right therapist for you is important and calling a psychologist can feel intimidating. I hope you take a chance to call and see how I can help you. Life is too short to keep those toxic friends, stay in bad relationships, or allow our emotions to control us. I want to help you understand yourself, regain control of your emotions, and find meaning in various aspects of your life. Let me help you build your self-confidence and find the beauty in every day. With 7+ years in the mental health field, I have assisted patients navigate and find healing in difficult situations. Do you need psychological testing, therapy, possibly both? Let me help you discover new things about yourself. Start your healing journey with me.
