I am passionately committed to supporting youth, young girls, and women to navigate the complexities of health (sexual, age, development, etc), fertility struggles, and sexual and reproductive trauma and complications from such traumas. I utilize mindfulness and somatic interventions to explore and restore bodily autonomy while also engaging in traditional psychotherapeutic interventions while incorporating a person-in-environment perspective.

As we go through different stages of life; we might have difficulty dealing with certain life experiences like trauma, PTSD, domestic violence, struggling to understand our mental illness, and struggling to cope in a world that sees us as disabled. My counseling technique is the Person-Centered Approach where the client is directing their course of treatment. This allows the client to be the driver and not the therapist.

Sometimes we become overwhelmed with life's many challenges and can't seem to get things right. Stress can overtake our lives and leave us feeling bog down, thus feeling stagnant or repeating the same negative patterns. Together I can help you achieve a personal sense of well being through counseling. My therapeutic approach is an interactive goal oriented approach using cognitive behavior therapy. Our thoughts, emotions and behaviors essentially create our lives! They can create within us tremendous sadness or overwhelming joy.

Life is full of transitions and it's difficult to deal with the day-to-day challenges of family, work, school, health, or grieving a loss. The help of a professional counselor may be necessary to get through some of these moments. I use a Person-Centered technique to create a safe space for you to tell your story. I have over 15+ years of working as a Human Resource Professional and I have seen how workplace bias impacts an individual’s mental well-being. I transitioned into Mental Health Counseling because of my passion for working with individuals and families to find a pathway to getting unstuck and navigating the unknown.

“Fitting in allows you to blend in with everyone else, but being different allows you to be yourself, to be unique, and to be more creative.” – Sonya Parker. Do people often comment on how different you are? It's okay to be different and unique; it helps you embrace self-acceptance. I firmly believe that everyone’s path in life is unique, and it's up to us to discover how to navigate it. Sometimes, life can be challenging and feel like an endless series of obstacles. Together, we can overcome these obstacles and stay true to your path.

It's not always easy knowing where to start, or where to go. Sometimes it's difficult to even find the words to express exactly how we're feeling, but we still feel it. Other times we may be unsure of how to cope with our feelings, or how to deal with the challenges we're facing. And that's okay, because we're human.

It has been said that "when it rains it pours" and at some point in everyone's lives they will believe wholeheartedly in that statement. For some, it may feel like they were born in the storm and have never found a way to get out of the rain. For others it may be a persistent drizzle, never a full downpour but never a break either. And for some, it may be the first time they've ever seen rain. No matter which is true, when the rain comes everyone hopes they will have a way to stay dry, be it a sturdy umbrella or a cozy shelter, but that is not always the case. Reaching out for help is another way to get out of the rain.
