Are you a human being with feelings? Do those feelings sometimes get really big and make it feel like things are out of control? All of us go through this during our lifetime. Maybe you go to the grocery store and it’s so people-y that you feel like you’re going to have a panic attack because you’re still not quite used to being around so many people at once. Or maybe you are struggling with grief and you don’t know how to live without the person you lost. Maybe you don’t enjoy things anymore and the people you love keep asking you what’s wrong and you don’t know how to answer them.

When feelings of anxiety occur regularly and begin to interfere with your job, relationships, or other aspects of your daily life, it's time to meet with a caring health professional.

Hello! I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor with ten years of experience working with individuals, families and couples. I work to provide empathy and compassion to help you address the challenges you face such as depression, anxiety, social anxiety, PTSD and bipolar disorder I have experience working with individuals from ages 8 to 72 years old in a variety of settings. We will work together to formulate goals that you want to achieve during our sessions and I will offer many suggestions on ways to address those problems.

Accepting new clients! My primary therapeutic approach is Person-Centered, which is based on the notion that clients have a capacity for self-awareness. I believe that clients are capable of healing themselves, can create their own self-growth, & are their own change agents. I consider counseling to be a collaborative process with both the counselor and client. I align with taking an integrative approach because I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach. In addition to person-centered, I utilize techniques from CBT. Every client has a different narrative and, therefore, should have a unique approach to each scenario.

I do not take for granted the strength it takes to seek support. I wholeheartedly believe in the process of mental health counseling and am excited to come along side those who would choose to participate in this journey. I understand that each client brings a unique perspective, set of experiences, and personality. Therefore, I seek to meet each client right where they are, partnering with them to tailor the counseling experience to best fit their goals.

The therapeutic relationship can provide an opportunity for you to process emotional, relational, and spiritual issues in a safe, non-judgmental environment. I incorporate a wide range of strategies in my therapeutic philosophy and style based on your need. In addition to individual therapy, I provide marital and family therapy, including mutli-generational family sessions. Much of my previous professional experience has been with relationship issues, grief, women's issues and trauma. I am currently accepting new patients.

Welcome to Therapy! In order for us to create healthy change and live life on our own terms we have to be willing to become comfortable being uncomfortable. We are all capable of improving the quality of our lives when we learn how to embrace challenges and overcome obstacles/self-doubts in order to create opportunities. I provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment in which my clients can explore the issues and challenges they are facing through a therapeutic approach.

The journey of life comes with many challenges and choosing something new rarely comes easy. If you have found yourself seeking out a therapist it may be fair to believe you've experienced moments when you've found yourself struggling with stress related to family, finances or relationships? Struggling to find a work/life balance? Feeling "stuck" after a big life change? Or notice things from your past continue to get in the way for you?

As your counselor, I am here to support you in making meaning, creating comfort, and uncovering resources to help you be your best self. Taking an evidenced-based, client centered, and existentially informed approach, I aim to provide a safe and supportive space where we can collaborate and work at your own pace to help you reach your goals.

Finding a therapist that you feel like you can click with and understands you or your child can be an overwhelming route in the sea of mental health. Sometimes a major life event happens that shakes us to our core. Or we discover that we are starting to lose the tolerance we used to have to manage the twists and turns of this unpredictable life. Or maybe, we just need an objective person to listen and truly hear us. I ensure to provide a safe and open environment to process internal and external challenges. Let's get to a place where you and/or your child feel more confident in overcoming obstacles and finding joy in daily life.

Are you feeling weighed down by the ups and downs of life? Unresolved trauma and other stressors can unexpectedly pull us back when we least expect it. My goal is to instill confidence in my clients and equip them with tools that can be used beyond our therapy sessions. Together, we’ll explore mindfulness techniques and psychoeducation, providing you with effective ways to navigate the different seasons of your life. I hope you find comfort in knowing that you don’t have to carry the weight of life alone—I’m here to help.

A wise prophet once said "life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough". Considering the turmoil that we face in our world today, I'd say those sentiments still resonate. From Inflation to war; mass shootings to racial injustice, It seems that the list of problems are endless. Combine those issues with family drama, church hurt, marriage conflict, and challenges at work...well, you my friend have a recipe for an implosion! You've seen the signs, that's why you're here. The irritability, ghosting, distance from family and friends, racing thoughts, anxiousness. You know that you have to do something before you explode!

Since 1992, I have had the honor of accompanying countless individuals in their journey towards living more authentic and satisfying lives. I am convinced that everyone possesses the ability to live their life to its fullest potential. As your counselor, my role is to help awaken you to this dormant power within. I believe that we all function based on the beliefs instilled in us at an early age and are reinforced in various ways throughout our lives. It is when we begin to challenge these "truths" that we experience a great awakening and discover our true self.

Imagine life is like a journey completely in your control but you feel stuck. Choices you make dictate life’s obstacles and they can be tricky. Life’s journey comes with no instruction pamphlet or ready-made companions. A path unfolds and you decide what to do and who to trust along the way. As you journey you begin to see things you want, potential companions, places you want to explore, and tools you can use to make travels simpler. There are so many choices to make with no time to stop and contemplate the best decision; you have to keep going by making choices every day, about everything. Decisions and deadlines do not wait.
