I have a passion for working with people who want to live their best lives. Sometimes, taking the step to begin counseling can feel scary, but I truly enjoy coming alongside those who may feel a little apprehensive and helping them feel supported in this journey. Many of the people I have worked with have dealt with things like depression and anxiety, relationship struggles, or trauma.

I believe that every day will not look the same and challenges can be difficult to see around, especially heavy moments that can seem everlasting. I also believe wholeheartedly that each person has the innate ability to channel resilience within themselves to achieve joy and contentment. Every person brings something unique with them from each life experience and I value what this can bring into the counseling relationship. I appreciate and utilize curiosity through a holistic lens, intuitively tapping into areas that can create insight, empowerment, and transformation in daily life. Together, we will safely explore these spaces.

Do you often ask yourself, "why do I keep ending up in the same place?" "I feel overwhelmed or confused?" The voice in your head is relentless with the swirling negative messages and thoughts. "I am not good enough!". "I am such a failure". "I don't get nothing right". You spend your time trying to please everyone else by not letting them down, however, it is still not enough. You have done all that you know and you still feel that nothing that you do makes a difference. Hopeless thinking. You feel broken without a sense of direction. You feel confused. You feel what is the use in trying because nothing will change. Is this you?

Do you notice that your teen is not themselves? Do they seem overwhelmed? Are they angry or withdrawn? As a parent of a struggling teen, you find yourself worrying about them and you want to make things better. But everything you have tried doesn’t seem to be working. It can be hard to reach out to a counselor because you want to find someone you trust who is knowledgeable but you also want that counselor to be able to get your teen to open up and talk about what is bothering them.

Not accepting new clients
Thank you for your interest, but I am NOT currently accepting new clients and I have a FULL waitlist- I have a preference for utilizing many of the counseling techniques within cognitive behavioral therapy because I believe that although individuals will undoubtedly experience hardship and difficulty within their lives, I feel that problems with emotions and behaviors are many times a result of how one thinks and feels about a situation. Because I believe that counseling is not a “one-size-fits-all” process, I will always maintain awareness of the uniqueness of a client’s situation and adapt my method to suit his or her needs.
