Around 40% of the effectiveness of therapy is your relationship with your therapist! The next 30% is your own coping skill set. I pride myself in being a down to earth, relatable counselor, and I enjoy collaborating with my clients for their mental health care! With 18 years of well-rounded experience in the field, I use a combination of theories and techniques to first build a trusting and empowering relationship and then work together to reduce the suffering that comes from mental health issues or life's stressors. I believe clients are looking for connection and for a counselor they can relate to, to help with their problems!

If I were a baker or a mechanic, then who I am as a person wouldn't matter, as long as the donuts are good or your car gets fixed. However, with counseling, how you feel about your counselor matters significantly. Being a good fit is a necessity. I hope that this brief narrative gives you an idea of what working with me might look like so that you can make an informed decision if I'd be an appropriate fit for what you need. I value the science behind what we feel and why we feel it. I value humor. I value unconditional regard for those I serve. These are integral to my work.

Greetings! I've been a licensed professional counselor for 30 years and I provide a holistic approach to counseling. I believe we are souls having human experiences and to achieve balance and coherence we must address the energetic and spiritual aspects of ourselves in addition to the physical, mental, and emotional. I use cognitive somatic energy practices to shift the stuck energy that can lead to physical, mental, and emotional dis-ease and I offer a listening program designed to re-tune the nervous system.

I want you to imagine leaving your home in the morning, navigating the busy roads to work. You’re tired, barely focused and dreading the day ahead. You pull into the parking lot of your employer, taking a deep breath. You grab your work things and walk towards the office. You stop, frozen in the sea of mental waves, a thousand thoughts crashing into one another, unable to organize them. Everything stops for a moment, a beacon of clarity forms in the distance and you’re able to hear one calm thought. You ask yourself “am I on the right path?”

My favorite part of being a counselor is hearing your stories and learning what makes you unique. Through the years I've seen folks in lots of different settings and everyone has a story. I tend to specialize in working with individuals managing past (or present) traumas, general mental health concerns, and addiction issues.
