About
Everyone has vulnerabilities, but imagine a life where your vulnerabilities have become your strengths. Although it may seem overwhelming now, with the right support, your pain can be transformed into an incredible source of personal growth. From my own experiences and those I have supported on their unique journeys, I have seen the true potential of transformation. For this reason, I offer more than just therapy - together, we will create a safe and compassionate space where you can confront your challenges, empower yourself, and transform your life. From battling addiction, anxiety, and depression to navigating LGBTQ issues and life transitions, I'm here to guide. Together we will navigate challenges with relationships, self-esteem and even self-discovery. For those confronting sexual trauma or seeking guidance in career and other challenges, I offer a compassionate, individualized approach. There is often more beneath the surface than words can convey. Know that your healing, growth and well-being are my priority. We'll explore solutions together, digging deep to ensure no stone is left unturned. Why not begin your journey of self-discovery and healing today, and let's pave the way to your best self. Credentials & Experience: In the U.S., I work only with clients in New Mexico. Outside the U.S., I offer virtual sessions worldwide; in-person sessions are available in Nassau, Bahamas. I bring a background in counselling, coaching, and professional development to support you in creating holistic, meaningful change.
"I take an eclectic, client-centred approach, shaping therapy around what you need. My work is grounded in Gestalt, helping you slow down, build awareness, and understand patterns. With couples, I use the Gottman Method research-based tools to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen connection. Beyond these, I value our relationship as central to creating meaningful change."
