Dealing with hopelessness, anxiety, and other stressors in daily life can be difficult and sometimes unmanageable. I work with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families on coping with and understanding these stressors, as well as managing and overcoming them. My goal is to establish trust and working relationships to educate on the impact in mental health; how to manage stressors, and identify preventative techniques to address those issues.

I believe that every person deserves an opportunity to learn how to heal and invest in themselves. Beginning therapy can be an intimidating process that’s unique to everyone. While life is full of unexpected trials and tribulations, therapy can give you the tools to manage, learn, and grow from these challenges. My goal is to ensure that you feel comfortable and heard throughout our sessions together. I am committed to accepting all of what you bring into the therapeutic space, welcoming all thoughts, feelings, and experiences that might be weighing on you during this time.

Throughout therapy, I will join you where you are on this part of your journey and encourage you to become an active participant in your healing process. I strive to provide a compassionate and accepting environment where you feel understood. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship as the primary modality of change in order to address your individual needs. When collaborating, I utilize techniques that employ your strengths to help you thrive. My therapeutic lens includes a combination of cognitive behavioral, client-centered, and Adlerian therapy, along with warmth and humor, to address stressors in your life.

I work with clients who are struggling with complicated grief, anger, stress, anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, sexual abuse, relationship concerns and substance abuse. Counseling works great for people who are willing to do things different so they can have a more positive outcome. Mental health is not something to be ashamed of and does not have to be a life sentence. Most people struggle at some point in their life and could use some support. There are other counselors in the practice that can also provide help. Visit us at www.rrcsmentalhealth.com We look forward to helping you with your journey.

I offer an in depth, diversity affirming approach to psychotherapy. I am passionate about providing clients with meaningful and effective services tailored to each person. My training, experience, and skill-set uniquely qualifies me to work within the intersections of addictions, attachment issues, traumatic experiences, and relationship issues. I engage with clients deeply to allow them to experience life more fully. Many people cover their genuine feelings to protect themselves from pain. I strive to create a safe environment where trust can be developed in the therapeutic relationship so that clients can gradually rely less on their need to protect themselves through self-destructive patterns.

I am currently accepting new clients for both in-person and telehealth therapy. My practice utilizes a person-centered and strength-based approach to understand and address each client's unique goals for therapy. I view the client as the expert on their own situation and value a collaborative approach to treatment that focuses on honoring the individual and their self-determination.

There comes a time in people’s lives when they aren’t comfortable where they are and want a change. I believe people deserve to live happier lives with renewed hope whether they are experiencing uncomfortable adjustments or have been enduring painful moments in life. It is my hope to meet clients where they are and provide a supportive and accepting environment, while collaboratively working towards the client’s goals. By encouraging individuals, couples, and families to be experts in their own lives, we can create lasting positive change to increase quality of life.

I'm accepting new clients. I believe every human wants to belong and seeks connection to others. This can be more challenging for some, causing unnecessary suffering and isolation. I believe that everyone deserves to feel like they belong and can function at their highest potential, regardless of the trauma they endured. I know that bearing your most vulnerable self to a complete stranger can be intimidating but I will provide you with a non-judgemental, compassionate, and caring space for you to do your hard work to achieve your mental, emotional, and social goals.

I work with adolescents and adults on issues including depression, anxiety, self-harming behaviors, family conflict, and adjustment due to life transitions.

We work together to understand what you most need from a counseling experience and tailor treatment to fit with your needs and personality.
