In my realm of counseling services, my ideal client is an individual who embraces the potential of therapeutic treatment and seeks genuine healing and growth. They are open-minded, ready to actively participate in their journey towards well-being, and understand that the real "work" happens both within and outside our counseling sessions. They yearn for unconditional support that goes beyond mere directives; instead, they seek guidance and empowerment to uncover their inner strength. They are in need of authentic connections and emotional support to navigate through the complexities of life.

Life's journey can be full of ups and downs that occasionally leave us feeling exhausted, confused, and deeply hurt. In these moments, we need help to overcome these challenges as we begin to make sense of these painful pieces of our story. Having someone to support you while offering compassion and empathy can help you restore and make sense of these parts of your journey. As your therapist, I seek to be an understanding presence by your side, helping you mend those fractured pieces and fueling your personal growth. I would be honored to come alongside you and support your healing journey.
