PCWC practices with the belief that satisfaction in life comes from the process of gaining self-awareness. This involves understanding oneself, what one wants and needs, and identifying strategies to accomplish those goals. She knows from her experience working with numerous clients that this approach is very successful.
College can be exciting and full of possibility, but it can also feel heavy. You might be juggling classes, friendships, family expectations, or questions about who you are and who you want to be. Maybe you’re feeling misunderstood, burned out, or carrying experiences from earlier in life that still show up in the present. Whatever you’re facing, you deserve a place where you don’t have to hold it all together. That’s where I come in. I offer a space where you can slow down, be honest, and explore what’s really going on beneath the surface. We’ll work together to make sense of your stress, your relationships, and the parts of your story that feel confusing or overwhelming. My goal is to help you build clarity, confidence, and coping skills that actually fit your life. If you’re curious about whether we’re a good match, you’re welcome to schedule a 15-minute consultation so we can figure it out together. You deserve support that feels grounding and real, and I’m here to help you get started.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist (in the states of Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio) who has been practicing for over 10 years. I have years of experience working with college students as I am a former College Counseling Center Director and worked in counseling centers as well as have seen college students in my private practice. I have years of experience providing both clinically and culturally competent therapy (meaning I collaborate with students to address topics they want to in therapy using tools/strategies that have been proven helpful and I take into consideration a student's various social identities and how that may impact how they experience the world). I find that I work well with students who are working through life transitions, adjustments, relationship stressors, experiencing anxiety(including those who experience social anxiety) depression, a desire to increase their self-esteem, racial trauma, or are in need increasing their overall coping skills.
Do you feel like you want to realize your true potential, but nothing you do is working? It must be so frustrating to know you can do more but not be able to get there. Creating a meaningful life is challenging, and we can often feel like we are failing, losing our sense self, struggling in relationships, or feeling anxious and empty. Not knowing the solution can be really scary, but we can work together to find the light in your darkness. I offer a culturally relevant approach to navigate these concerns. My passion has been to work with individuals and couples to become improved versions of themselves. I create an easygoing space grounded in understanding, transparency and humor where you can bring your true self. I will challenge you to grow in a way that reflects your goals. During this journey, we may face some unknowns, but I hold this uncertainty with you and encourage you to embrace the discomfort with me. I do not think this is easy by any means but I want to face this with you. Feel free to contact me for a free consultation. I am available from Sunday to Thursday from 3pm to 10pm PDT. I truly look forward to meeting you.
I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with fear of abandonment, feelings of instability in relationships, and those experiencing intense emotional turbulence. Whether you feel overwhelmed by the intensity of your emotions or find yourself caught in unhealthy relationship patterns, my approach is grounded in empathy, support, and understanding. I help clients navigate these challenges by creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore the roots of your concerns and develop healthier coping strategies. With a background shaped by working around the world, I bring a unique global perspective to my work. Many of my clients come to me feeling alone, misunderstood, or as though their emotional experiences are difficult to express or process. If this resonates with you, know that you're not alone. Together, we can explore these feelings, understand their deeper causes, and work toward emotional clarity and healing.
As a psychologist, I partner with clients to help them heal from raw emotional pain, recognize their inner strengths, and build resiliency in the face of life’s biggest challenges. My style is one that is warm and nurturing while also direct and honest. If you’re feeling stuck, not good enough, lonely, overwhelmed, devastated, or ashamed, you are not alone. I have dedicated my career to learning gold standard treatments to ensure that when clients have the courage to reach out for help, I am able to offer treatment interventions that they can trust will make a difference. I am a clinical specialist with expertise in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of trauma/PTSD, relationship issues, depression, complicated grief (suicide loss, perinatal loss), and unwanted sexual experiences (rape, sexual assault, harassment, violence). I began practicing in 2005 and have been a licensed psychologist since 2010.
I provide therapy that’s rooted in cultural humility. I believe trust grows when we honor the full spectrum of your identity—race, gender, work environments, religious affiliation, family, and beyond. I’m interested in the “why” behind things. Many of our thoughts, feelings, and reactions make sense when we look at earlier experiences or relationships. In therapy, we gently explore those patterns—how they show up now, and whether they’re helping or holding you back. I work in partnership with you. We’ll determine your course of treatment together. I believe the most lasting change happens when your voice is central to the process.
In very brief, as a former staff member and previous Director of a college counseling center, I have 20 years of experience and am passionate and committed to working with Undergraduate and Graduate students. Im told I am easy to talk to, give helpful feedback and offer insight and perspective as well as new coping skills. Exploring questions and concerns, helping you describe and better understanding your problems and their origins is part of my approach. I also know students need immediate go to strategies that can often make a difference in how a semester goes. I work with any and all students but have some specialty experience in clients who are creative individuals such as artists and musicians, graduate students and health care majors. I appreciate you checking out my website (see below) or my Psychology Today profile for more information on my practice. Thank you. Hope to meet you soon.

I work with adults and teens experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and trauma. Therapy is a space where you can develop insight into how you became the person you are, while learning to have more compassion for yourself. You can explore how to cope with life's challenges in a way that feels healthy and practical. So many of us are carrying heavy emotional burdens which impact how we show up in the world, for our families, and for ourselves. We often feel alone with our feelings, stuck in a place of shame, unsure of how to heal and move forward. I believe we are greatly influenced by our early experiences with our families and caregivers. How did those experiences mold you into who you are, and how might they be holding you back? Changing your relationship with yourself is integral to living the life you want. My work also includes helping clients to look at how their thoughts impact mood and behavior. I enjoy integrating mindfulness practices and other strategies so that clients gain practical strategies to deal with the inevitable challenges we all face. Let's move from a place of self-blame to a place of acceptance and healing. Please reach out today.
Helping individuals manage stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, and traumatic life experiences are some of my areas of expertise. Adding school pressures, deadlines, work, parenting and other responsibilities on top of that can be very overwhelming. Pain and emotions that we have been running from can start to catch up with us, stress and anxiety can climb to a level we have never experienced, and the relationships that we cherish can become strained. As life evolves we can lose the ability to cope the way we once did. When this happens we often need to adjust, understand the deeper source of our struggle and learn new strategies to manage our thoughts and feelings. With over 15 years experience in the mental health field I have helped many people do just that, learn new strategies and better understand themselves so that they can successfully manage life's ups and downs. If you are reading this and find yourself saying, "that's me", give me a call. You don't how to figure this out alone.
