As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience, I firmly believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. Throughout my career, I've dedicated myself to supporting individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, and other mental health conditions. My passion for mental health stem from personal experiences within my own family. Adolescence can be especially challenging I am committed to providing support during these critical years. Let's work together to prioritize your mental health and build a path towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.
My approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered Therapy, and EMDR. I specialize in working with depression and trauma, particularly among veterans and adolescents. Adolescence can be an especially challenging time, with higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide attempts.
In our sessions, I strive to create sale, nonjudgemental environment where you can feel comfortable and open. Together, we will develop skills such as relaxation and breathing techniques, and visualization exercises. My goal is to help you navigate life's challenges with resilience and confidence.
