I founded Start Today Counseling Interventions on the belief that everyone has an innate capacity to heal. Often, all it takes is the right support, safe relationships, and safe space to reconnect with your inner wisdom. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP), EMDR-trained therapist, and owner of Start Today Counseling Interventions, I specialize in supporting adults (18+) navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, chronic stress, burnout, and major life transitions. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and holistic. I blend psychodynamic insight with trauma-informed and person-centered therapies to help you uncover the root of emotional pain, build resilience, and develop sustainable tools for growth. Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes, it’s a collaborative journey of honest exploration, self-awareness, and empowered change. Together, we’ll move beyond survival toward authentic, empowered living.

I help adults (18+) from all backgrounds gain clarity, build confidence, and move forward with purpose. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, major life transitions, or navigating challenges related to LGBTQ+ identity or cultural experiences, I offer affirming, culturally sensitive support tailored to your unique journey. Together, we’ll break through barriers, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change that fits your life. Using a compassionate, person-centered approach combined with evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused strategies, I provide practical tools that truly work. We’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, then develop actionable steps to manage them effectively. My goal is to help you reconnect with your values and inner strengths, so you can live authentically, confidently, and empowered every day.
