I strive to provide everyone who enters my counseling room with a safe and compassionate environment to enable the client to feel comfortable expressing thoughts and emotions as they work toward healing. If you desire to have faith integrated into your therapy, I am able to do that but if faith is not something you want to be a part of your therapy, that is fine as well. As a client-centered therapist, I meet you where you are and I focus on what you need to meet your goals.

I am driven by a desire to help children and adults overcome the stressors of life, so they can find fulfillment and joy. From anxiety to depression, to self-esteem or self-doubt, to helping survivors of unhealthy/abusive relationships, you are now in the right place. Finding someone that can truly understand and can make a difference in our lives is not easy. I understand that it’s difficult to seek quality help, find someone, only to later learn that they are unfit to help you.

Have you experienced some form of trauma? Struggling with addiction? Or dealing with relationship challenges? You have come to the right place and have already taken the most important step in your journey toward peace of mind, connection, and confidence in your ability to achieve your goals. Often, the greatest challenge is overcoming the inertia of maintaining status quo and stepping out into the unknown where healing can begin.
