The love of people and the passion of working with others so they can heal from past experiences is what drew me into the field of counseling.

I understand that we all encounter difficult emotions and come to face challenges that we do not feel equipped for. I believe that therapy can be a safe environment to help you process your thoughts and feelings, understand yourself, and help you grow.

I am committed to joining you to help you reach your goals.

Welcome, we all get stuck sometimes and the last thing we need is judgment and lack of compassion! I get it! My therapeutic person-centered approach is based on the belief that everyone is inherently good and deserves to be heard. I strive to make individuals feel valued and validated. I use this approach along with different treatment methods to help heal the whole person. I am a Catholic-Christian counselor; yet allow the client to determine how much, if any, faith to incorporate in sessions without projecting my own beliefs onto others.

I am an eclectic counselor. I use a variety of healing methods to help my clients live happier and healthier lives. I also counsel persons of all ethnic backgrounds, without prejudice. I just love people and I love helping them.

As a therapist I work with people seeking new beginnings, change, and healing. I am now offering a new eye movement therapy (ART) that addresses multiple issues including trauma, anxiety, eating issues and much more. Therapy goals are always tailored to the individual and their needs. I have had the privilege to teach as adjunct faculty for undergraduate and graduate level students and believe in life long learning. I encourage individuals and couples to start where they are and let therapy guide the next steps.

Inevitably, we all encounter periods in our lives in which what we've learned to that point isn't sufficient for the challenges we now face. I believe therapy can be a safe, supportive environment in which to better understand ourselves and the world and to revisit what we want in life and how to get there. Whether you are dealing with significant anxiety or depression, or simply need a new environment to learn your way through new challenges with a helping eye and ear, I bring a humorous, creative, curious and open-minded approach to helping you progress through life's challenges.

Life can be hard sometimes. Okay let’s be real- life can get downright messy. Are you tired of feeling stuck, weighed down, or just out of touch with who you are? What a great first step you have taken in starting your journey to wellness and healing. Counseling or therapy can be such an intimidating first step no matter who you are or what you have been struggling with. Whether you are coming in with life-long concerns, increased stress, or are just wanting a ‘tune up’, having a space where you can let it all out while also doing amazing work can be just the thing you need.

From the heaviness of loss, the strain of daily tasks with living anxiety or depression, or working towards overcoming past difficulties, every situation deserves a supporting person to help navigate the healing. Life does not have to be done alone and neither do any complications, whether you see them as large or small. Emotions, thoughts, and feelings are all an innate part of what makes us who we are. To be greeted by them with empathy and warmth from someone else can be something everyone deserves.
