I believe counseling is a place of passage, not a destination. My goal is to provide a safe space for exploring reactions, thoughts, and feelings about oneself and others, and to build on the strengths and skills you already possess, helping you lead a healthier, happier life during and after therapy. With a solid foundation in both academic achievement and practical experience, I am a seasoned counseling professional recognized for my extensive knowledge of clinical counseling principles and techniques. My career reflects a remarkable capacity for empathy, problem-solving, and exceptional interpersonal and communication skills.

An important element I bring into counseling is a holistic understanding of you and your system. Through this, we discover dynamic ways to affect the issues in which you desire to see positive and enduring change. Furthermore, I practice a balanced approach. One side of counseling is more hands-on advising that involves practical and effective life skills. On the other side, counselors are neutral collaborators that facilitate self-exploration, depth, and healing. Through scholarly research and personal practice, I strive to bring both elements into my counseling relationships to achieve quick and lasting systemic change.

I am a survivor too! We are living in stressful times and sometimes things happen in life that are out of our control and we need help. We may need help getting our life back on track or just feeling normal again. Sometimes we need to know its ok to not be ok. It's ok to seek professional help, whether its because of addiction, family dysfunction, mood disorders, or just someone to talk to. The goal at the end of the day is to feel like you have a sense of purpose, meaning, and direction in life. There is no such thing as a perfect life but you can give yourself permission to come out of the dark places and start living again.

If you have ever found yourself agonizing over a text message for hours or redoing your to-do list a million times (because it wasn’t just right), we’re probably a match made in therapy heaven! I specialize in working with girlies like you, who are caught in the perfectionism and overthinking whirlwind. You know, the ones who have ten different planners, three different highlighter colors, and a love-hate relationship with Pinterest-level expectations. Maybe that need for control impacts your relationship with food and how you view your body as well.

You do not have to be sick to get better. I believe in paying attention to experience not what is bad or wrong. We can all learn skills to improve. My past experience as a world ranked professional tennis player gives me insight to work with high school, collegiate and professional athletes or anyone in this age. I work from a depth model, which encourages self-exploration to improve skills. The exploration helps one become conscious of long standing coping mechanisms that may no longer be as valuable as they once were. Learning what you do that blocks happiness empowers you to make choices that lead to a satisfying life.
