Each person’s story matters. Every life follows its own unique pattern of pain, depression, trauma, opportunities, joys, and despair. At times our stories can feel overwhelming, and we are unsure of what direction to take. My own life has taken many twists and turns that has motivated me to come and walk alongside others as they walk toward healing and growth.

As a counselor, I invite people to share their concerns with me and I strive to create an environment where you can be honest, vulnerable and above all feel safe. It is my aim to help people express their emotions, discover their strengths, and look into patterns that they may want to change.

I work to create a welcoming and collaborative environment in the therapy room. I believe that empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard help create the space necessary for clients to understand themselves and make positive change in their lives.

Chances are, you've been here before. The feeling that things can't change, at least not for the better. The anxiety that is interrupting your sleep or work stress that follows you home and has you sniping at your loved ones instead of enjoying your time with them. Whatever it is that you're experiencing that has you wondering, "can therapy actually help me?", you've probably been through something like it before. I have too. As a clinician with over 10 years of experience helping others, and over 20 years of experience on the client side of the table, I can answer that question with a definitive "Yes!".

My counseling style is warm and welcoming. I believe in treating all people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am currently focusing on teen and adult clients who are experiencing life changes, depression, anxiety, LGBTQIA+ needs, transitions to adulthood, relationship issues, grief and loss, and difficulties with self esteem and self compassion. I provide both in person and virtual services, however I am currently working to increase my telehealth caseload.

You deserve to work with a therapist that is able to meet your needs, makes you feel comfortable and, let's be honest, is someone that you mesh with! The relationship between therapist and client is the core of the therapeutic process, when you connect with and trust in your therapist you are able to safely explore the things that brought you to therapy in the first place. I believe that you hold the answers to your questions and stressors and that it is my job to provide you with the tools to help uncover them.

Every client comes from a different background, with different experiences, needs, thoughts, and expectations. With this in mind, my goal is to listen, discuss, and try to understand my clients, where they are coming from, who they are, and why they need me. Together with my clients, we work to identify goals that the client feels are significant and important, and then develop plans on how to achieve these goals in reasonable, managable, and most importantly, healthy steps.

There is no one more put together than a person in recovery. Living in recovery is working a program of mental health, staying clean and sober, and living one day at a time. With that being said, each person’s specific program looks different, with the common factor of living a balanced life of being grateful, mindful, spiritual, and finding a sense of community among other recovering individuals. My specialty areas are addictions, mental health, trauma, codependency issues, and how these affect you and those who love you.

No matter how hard you try to move forward, you feel like your taking one step back. You’re a high performer with perfectionism tendencies and always put on a smile, which helps you forget your pain. You may feel you will never be fully happy and never be able to fully enjoy life how others do, because of your many losses, attributing to your decreased self esteem. You may keep friends and family at a distance, to protect yourself from yet another inevitable loss. You may have stopped exercising and taking care of yourself the way you used to, since it takes too much work and you're just surviving at the end of another long day.

Everyone who takes the risk to try counseling needs to be listened to and their unique story heard. During counseling sessions you will feel valued, supported, and equipped to face the struggles of life. Together we'll figure out how you can move forward, if you feel stuck, and reach your goals. We'll use your strengths to overcome what may be holding you back, and holistic strategies for healing and growth. Whether dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulty, or some other issue, we can work together to develop solutions. As a therapist I offer you a fresh perspective, some new skills, guidance, and hope.

I’ve worked in in the mental health field for nearly 25 years, in inpatient and residential settings, as well as in the community. I’ve worked with diverse populations, primarily with adults of all ages, and also have experience working with adolescents who’ve experienced significant trauma. I’ve worked extensively with individuals diagnosed with severe anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation (and attempts), mood disorders, psychosis, borderline personality disorder, as well as intellectual disabilities and neurodevelopmental differences. I believe mental health services should be accessible to all and seek to make that a reality.

As a therapist with nearly 30 years of clinical experience, my role is to act as a guide and support to those who seek to make changes. I understand that finding and starting with a healthcare provider can be overwhelming. When I am seeking new providers for my healthcare, I expect them to show compassion and respect and to both listen and hear. Since I value that as a consumer, it is important that I show that as a provider.

I believe every person has a unique story, influenced by all of the situations and life experiences that have led up to this moment. My goal as a therapist is to build a warm and trusting relationship with you in order to support and encourage your personal growth and change. With both my personal and professional experience with blended families, non-monogamous relationships and anxiety/depression, I understand how difficult it can be to find a therapist who can provide a non-judgmental space to navigate your deepest thoughts and feelings. It is my goal to provide a space that is safe and welcoming for every client.
