I love working with people of all ages! But I have a special place in my heart for kiddos, teens, and young adults. Most of all, I love when I get to work with someone who is ready to take charge of their mental health care and make the changes needed to see the results they want. I believe in a collaborative style of counseling, where the client and I work together to find the solutions to their specific issues. If you let it, counseling can be the sandpaper that polishes away rough edges and blemishes until there’s a whole new you!

I am confident that together we can discover you or your child’s best self.
I work with adults, couples, children, and teenagers to help equip them with skills needed to thrive in life, and resolve conflict. As a parent and youth volunteer within the community, my heart is particularly for this young generation and the issues they face. Depression, anxiety, stress, and peer struggles threaten the emotional well-being of our kids. Sadly, suicide is now one of the leading causes of death for this age group. It’s imperative that our youth receive an outlet for their emotional stress and injury, and receive the coping skills to work through the obstacles they’ll face now and as adults.

I understand that seeking counseling for your child or yourself is not an easy decision & your comfort is important to me.
Sometimes in life we have experiences that lead us to places of confusion, shame, regret, unworthiness, fear, brokenness, emptiness and just an overall feeling of failure. When we make the brave step to ask for help, although scary, that is the first step in choosing ourselves and starting a journey to finding true freedom. If you or feeling stuck and you are looking for someone to help guide you on this journey, want a relaxed environment, but a straightforward and direct therapist who vows to treat you with respect and compassion then let’s talk.

Special Services: I conduct court-ordered child custody evaluations and testify in court.
I view counseling as a collaborative relationship in which the client and I work together to explore the current problematic issues and develop goals to address these issues. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, adjustment to life issues, and communication and relationships. I work with adults, children (play therapy), teens, couples, and families of all backgrounds. Additionally, I work within your spiritual beliefs to address your issues according to your values. I believe that change occurs through the development of a collaborative working relationship and through changing negative thoughts and behaviors that affect changes in mood.
