Counseling can appear to be overwhelming and intimidating. However it does not have to be this way. As we seek validation and acceptance in our lives, there are certain paths that we must take to find them. I believe one of the most important things is for people to learn how to get along with other important people in their lives, such as friends, spouses, siblings, relatives, co-workers, etc. Additionally, I strongly believe that the fundamental relationship be tween a client and counselor is to foster openness, trust, and personal growth.

Adolescence is a critical stage of development, marked by significant physical, emotional, and psychological changes. For many, this period can be further complicated by traumatic events, profound loss, or pervasive feelings of anxiety and depression. As a mental health professional specializing in adolescents facing trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety, I am deeply committed to guiding young people through some of the most challenging periods of their lives. My journey into this field began with a profound desire to make a difference in the lives of those who often feel voiceless and overwhelmed by their experiences.

I specialize in preteens and teens who are seeking to make sense of themselves and their interactions with the world. At such a critical time in life, one is continuously discovering and forming an identity, values, and coming to terms with how personal choices impact self-esteem, peer and familial dynamics, and the school experience. Together, your child and I work to foster personal growth, emotional awareness and regulation, and to empower them in their development towards a sense of self and purpose. Though most of my experience involves working within the school system, I welcome individuals of all ages.

I work with a variety of clients and am committed to each one equally. My focus is on the overall mental wellness of individuals according to each’s own unique needs; I am well-versed in theoretical orientations and multiculturalism. I engage with clients based on their individual needs, as each case is just as unique as the client(s). I work with the client(s) from their perspective and help them work towards their chosen goals. I navigate the client to achieve smaller, accomplishable goals that then create a building block for larger, more obtainable long-term goals while giving the client autonomy to enhance self-growth.
