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.

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.

Everyone deserves to have a purpose to get out of bed and make the best of their life. Everyone in therapy deserves to be treated with respect and dignity. With a faith-based background, I will be alongside you as you find your purpose and meaning in life."

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.
