Life is constantly changing and brings each individual their own unique challenges. I know that these challenges can seem intimidating and leave us feeling alone at times. I want my clients to know that they do not have to navigate these feelings alone. My approach to counseling is down to earth, collaborative, and supportive, offering a space where you can discuss what has been weighing on you without fear of judgement. I believe people can begin the healing process once they feel heard. Together we will explore your strengths and use those to help you move towards your goals so that you can become the best version of yourself.

Psychological testing can be a critical tool in clarifying diagnoses, assisting psychiatrists in making decisions about medication, and providing recommendations and resources to support decision-making about treatment. Psychological testing is commonly recommended to diagnose ADHD or learning disabilities. College students are often referred for this type of testing because they are struggling in school for the first time and there are no known reasons for their challenges. My therapy sessions are designed to provide patients with effective tools to help them cope with life's stressors and improve their overall well-being.

Are you at your wits end as a parent? It may seem like you have tried everything, but nothing works. You may even feel like you are a "bad parent" because your child gets dismissed from preschool, refuses to go to school, can't find friends, or has terrible emotional outbursts at home. It's heart breaking. Plus, it seems unfair when you work hard to improve, but the chaos and confusion remain. I can help.

I love my work and enjoy offering my clients a safe and supportive environment for them to grow and explore themselves. My style is both conversational and relational. I offer an authentic presence within a collaborative, lively relationship in which self-discovery can be non-threatening and perhaps, even fun. I am committed to sharing everything I know which I believe will help heal the difficulties in one's life. I am inspired each day by the courage clients have each moment they show up for therapy. I became a therapist because, to me, the value in life comes when you return to your value within.

Life's overwhelming stressors can often get you off track making you feel alone and without anyone to confide in to offer support and encouragement. The essential thing to remember is that everyone experiences these moments throughout their lives; it's what makes us human.

I approach therapy from a “person-centered”, whole wellness model. My style of therapy is more “laid back” and I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for clients. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally. I specialize in trauma, grief, and career counseling but I am looking forward to expanding into identity counseling and other needs for the LGTBQIA+ community.

As children we create beliefs about ourselves and the world around us that are a result of our interactions with our environment, our heredity and, our relationships with others. Everyday we reinforce those beliefs by our assumptions and our interpretation of events, even though those beliefs may no longer be accurate, may cause us pain, and may negatively impact our ability to function at optimum potential. Counseling and hypnotherapy facilitate awareness, change, empowerment and growth.
