My primary goal is to create a supportive space where you can openly discuss your concerns, explore your thoughts and feelings, and develop strategies to overcome obstacles. I have worked with clients dealing with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and life transitions. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, incorporating evidence-based practices while also recognizing the importance of your individual experiences and values.

Are you Feeling defeated, overwhelmed, mentally exhausted or just having a hard time adjusting to the changes occurring in your life! You are starting at the right place. As individuals we are faced with so many stressors in our lives. Sometimes we need the guidance and support to help us naviagate through life. Sometimes we need a neutral person who we can tell our story to, who is there to listen, without judgement.

Sometimes anxiety, depression or low self-esteem issues can come on slowly or, at times, quickly overwhelm us. No matter how these issues happen it helps to have someone to listen to and support you through those times. My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for my clients where they can slow down and start to take apart those issues piece by piece so they can be better understood and dealt with. I use many different counseling styles but, ultimately, I want my clients to feel like they are just having a conversation about the struggles in their lives.

Hello there and welcome! I'm so glad you're here. Personal challenges require courage and belief in oneself to conquer. I believe perception plays a key role in the mental healthiness of individuals and many times distorted perception can hinder us from growth. I love working with individuals who seek to develop healthy coping mechanisms and increase overall self esteem. My passion in counseling is working with individuals who experience anxiety and other mood disorders in addition to challenges with life transitions, self-esteem, and social skills. I love working with children, adolescents, and young adults as individual clients.

I have worked extensively with adolescents, at risk children, and adults who suffer from anxiety, depression, anger management issues, self-esteem issues, behavioral issues, and substance abuse issues. I also work with children and adults who have suffered trauma and experience symptoms of PTSD, ADHD, and ADD. I sometimes incorporate physical activity into the therapeutic process. This "active therapy" can be especially helpful in working with issues of self esteem, anxiety, depression, and addiction. In addition to "active therapy", I have also found that meditation and mindfulness can be especially helpful for children who have trouble with focus and concentration.

Life throws curve balls. You don't have to take them on alone. I believe in creating a safe environment to help you manage everything you are carrying.

I have worked with clients with various diagnoses and those seeking assistance in self-esteem, relationships, life transitions, parenting, and grief and loss, among others.

Being a counselor allows me the privilege of walking with someone in the midst of their struggles towards healing.

I offer different types of therapeutic avenues to explore, rework, release and address challenges old or new.
