Accepting clients
Updated 29 days ago

I welcome and affirm clients of all identities and backgrounds.

I help clients who are mentally stuck find their way out by providing a safe environment, listening without judgment, and partnering with them to develop an individualized treatment plan. I am a medically trained holistic practitioner who utilizes prescription medications, herbal supplements, talk therapy, coaching, and mind-body techniques to assist you in reaching your goals. I encourage you to reach out and take that first step to healing by calling, emailing, or requesting an appointment through my website.
