I have been providing services to children, adolescents, and families since 2009. I have years of experience working with people from all different backgrounds, and most commonly I work with issues related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, grief and loss, career issues, and much more. I have an integrative counseling style that incorporates elements from Strength-based Solution-focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
You are the expert of your life and the captain of your ship, but every captain needs a crew. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I'm here to help you maneuver around barriers, highlight your strengths, and use those strengths to navigate your ship where you want it to go.
Starting therapy can be scary and intimidating, but it can also be empowering and uplifting. Contact me and I can address any questions and concerns you have. Together, we can get your ship back on the course you have planned.
