I think one of the greatest honors and privileges I have as a counselor is walking alongside my clients throughout their journeys – through some of their darkest and most challenging moments. If you are struggling, you do not have to struggle alone. I am here for you! I aim to provide a safe, welcoming and compassionate environment for my clients, so that each person who enters my office feels comfortable. Therapy is a collaborative process, so together we can explore whatever it may be that is causing you or your child distress.

"Life's roughest storms prove the strength of our anchors!" With almost 20 years of experience in working with individuals of all ages as well as families, I have taken great pride in helping others recognize their individual strengths to weather the many storms of life. Although I work with all ages, I have a special passion for working with older children and teens and their families. Throughout my career, I have helped parents find the balance of providing support and love coupled with discipline to have healthy, happy relationships with their children and teens.

Simply put, life is hard. We are often dealt an undesirable hand or have unfortunate curve balls thrown at us, making aspects of life confusing and overwhelming. My goal is to walk beside each client as they learn how to navigate the tougher experiences, setbacks, and uncertainties. Each client I see is treated as unique and treatment is centered around their own personal experiences, preferences, and personal goals. My approach is extremely client-centered and collaborative, where clients have the opportunity to take control of their life and have a say in their treatment.

It’s hard to know how to start an introduction like this. It can quickly feel like I am trying to “sell” myself to you, which is not the point. It's for you to get to know me. I have found therapy to be most beneficial under two conditions: first and foremost, a person HAS to be ready. Ready to make changes; ready to dig deep. I think we have all been guilty of continuing the same patterns of behavior, hoping things will magically change one day. I advise a healthy mix of tangible change along with exploration to identify how core beliefs, negative thoughts and family dynamics impact present behaviors and relationships.
