Parenting is difficult, especially during the teen and early adult years. With nearly two decades of experience as a teacher, coach, counselor, and administrator at the high school level, I bring a unique perspective to my professional counseling practice where I specialize in working with teens and young adults. My expertise lies in empowering my clients to unlock their fullest potential and navigate life's challenges with resilience and grace. I have availability in the evenings and on weekends; I see clients via Zoom only.
My client-centered approach means I meet individuals where they are, providing unwavering support as we navigate life's complexities together. Through tailored strategies and gradual progress, I help clients surpass their own expectations and become the best version of themselves.
I understand that taking the first step towards seeking help can be daunting. Whether you're a teenager struggling with self-esteem, a young adult grappling with anxiety, or a parent concerned about your child's behavior, know that you're not alone. My experience as an educator and counselor has taught me that everyone has the potential for growth.
