Life can be pretty overwhelming sometimes. From juggling school or work to figuring out relationships and finding out who you are, it’s easy to feel lost in the chaos. As an experienced counselor, I’ve seen it all, and I get it—life’s not always a smooth ride.

In today's world, there has been a growing trend of being more focused on perfection, often to the point of harsh self-criticism. We are expected to say yes to every request all while feeling overburdened and without a voice. As a result, we get so caught up in our lives that we forget, or have never learned how to set healthy boundaries which can result in the lowering of our self-worth. My focus is working with clients ages 12 to adult struggling with issues such as burnout in our personal and professional life, difficulty with communication skills, and practicing self compassion. Life is more complex than a diagnosis.

Welcome! First and foremost, it is my aim to put you at ease, maybe even get you to laugh a little bit! Making the leap to come to therapy can be nerve wracking. I am here to challenge, support, and guide you on a journey of self discovery. This work can be difficult, but hopefully it is well worth the effort, and who knows, we may just have some fun along the way. I will start out each new journey with a thorough intake interview to get a complete mental health history, which hopefully allows me to get to know you pretty well. From there we can look at your present concerns and set some short and long term goals.

Many times, the parent/child relationship becomes marked by fighting and power struggles. Parents and teens facing difficulty may find teen counseling effective and helpful.
