My goal is to help guide my clients to where they need/want to be despite whether or not they are currently on that path. As a counselor, I do not wear the "expert cap", because this is your life, your experiences, and your concerns. You are the expert on your life! I am here to provide an unbiased, safe place for you to talk to through (and live through) your experiences. All clients are treated equally and will be given the same unconditional positive regard. Counseling has many benefits, such as increased self-esteem, better coping skills, increased self-awareness, better daily living skills, stress reduction, & holistic health.

Deciding to come to counseling is a difficult one. My passion is to “walk along side” the person who ready to be challenged and work through being "stuck" from distressing experiences. My specialty is working with people who have traumatic pasts causing intrusive thinking/rumination; nightmares and flashbacks; and avoidance from others and situations. I am passionate about working with individuals and families to overcome underlying relational problems and to feel safe expressing their wishes and desires. I counsel with people who are dependent on drugs and alcohol working through what he or she is escaping from.

Part of being human is that we experience many different emotions throughout our lives. Situations can come up that are unexpected and create problems. We may also find ourselves at a crossroad having to sort through difficult emotions from the present and the past. Whatever it is that you may be experiencing, I offer you an environment where you can feel comfortable so that you can make changes in your life. I see my role as facilitating a process for change. This includes helping you to identify your strengths, clarify your values, educate you on the change process and advocate and coach as needed.

In life, there are times when we feel stuck, either in a negative mindset, bad habit or situation wondering what happened and how we arrived at such a place. Often times our problems/situations are prolonged or hidden by shame, defense, hurt or anger. In these situations, what is needed is a safe nonjudgmental space where we feel seen and understood, and to explore challenges in our lives, and the possibility of change. Therapy is meant to create a safe space that allows emotional healing and restoration to take place through rapport building, openness, trust, and awareness.
