I enjoy working with adults, college students, teens, and adolescents, where I provide therapeutic interventions through an eclectic use of modalities tailored to the needs of each client.
I am a Blue Cross Blue Shield provider. One thing I've learned both by counseling others and being counseled is that we cannot shame ourselves into the person we want to be. I believe if we approach ourselves with curiosity, compassion, and gentleness, we will be surprised at what we will learn, what we can accomplish, and how we can heal. I also believe in the connective power of humor and storytelling within the therapeutic environment. I commonly work with clients dealing with: abuse, trust and betrayal, communication breakdowns, complicated family dynamics, grief, shame, anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

I have worked extensively with teens and children to help them develop useful skills early in life and with adults to heal past and present wounds.
Deciding to participate in counseling and finding a therapist in general can be a daunting task for many. It can bring up many fears and anxieties even before you make that next step of reaching out to someone or entering their office. I know this feeling, and my goal is to help you feel heard, seen, safe, valued, and supported as you cope with changes and traumas in life. I seek to assist you with developing skills that will help with present situations and situations you may encounter in the future. I desire to meet you wherever you are and care for you enough not to leave you there.

My work experience is primarily with adults and teenagers.
Does it feel like you've just been struggling through life lately? Maybe you often feel overwhelmed, worn out, or like you're running on empty. Life is full of ups and downs and sometimes those low points just seem to go on and on. Whether this is a new feeling for you or it's an old, unwanted friend, you don't have to face it alone. If feelings of shame or worry about being a burden have kept you from seeking help in the past, know that you are God's creation and are deserving of receiving help.

Life is stressful. It becomes even more so when trying to cope with a history of childhood mistreatment or abuse, failed relationships, parenting stresses, anxiety or disrupted mood. Struggling with these issues can also make us feel isolated and alone. Reaching out for help can be the most courageous and healthiest thing we do. Don’t continue to struggle with these issues alone.

I have worked with children, adolescents, adults and families with finding best practices tailored to their individual and group needs in an effort to improve quality of life.
As we move throughout our lives, there are instances in which we find ourselves experiencing feelings that can be hard to describe, let alone understand. Mood changes, life transitions, trauma, loss and self esteem issues are just a few of the elements we encounter in our quest to have a fulfilling life. Learning how to optimistically cope with or eliminate these feelings altogether is a daunting task but with the right effort and determination, the goal is attainable.
