As a former behavioral health client, I know what it feels like to struggle; however, I also know what it feels like to heal, persevere, and get a second chance story. I am understanding of the stigma surrounding mental health and addiction, and I will walk alongside you on your journey to healing. Whether you are court ordered or voluntarily seeking services, we will establish a therapeutic relationship built on trust, support, and empathy, with the intention to help you obtain your goals and increase your quality of life. If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. I look forward to being part of your second chance story.
I provide outpatient mental health counseling, substance use/abuse counseling, substance use/abuse assessments (court ordered or voluntary), domestic violence assessments, M.E.N.S. Group (court ordered or voluntary), substance use prevention education, and secretary of state evaluations for driver's license restoration.
I am inspired by authenticity, human connection, and a person-centered approach. Everyone's experience is unique and affects them differently, and it is important for you to feel understood. I will meet you where you're personally at, with the intention to provide you the opportunity for growth through empathic and compassionate behavioral health services.
