"Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it's holy ground. There is no greater investment." (Stephen Covey). This quote is very relevant in my work as a Licensed Professional Counselor as I work with my clients through their journey of personal struggle, helplessness, anxiety, fear, and despair. Through a collaborative relationship, I will support you to explore and dispel fear, overcome anxiety, regain confidence, establish self-control, and deal with loss and negativity. I am committed to providing you with a warm, supportive, and therapeutic environment while allowing you to explore your strengths and challenges!
I have over 15 years' experience in both Mental Health and Substance Abuse Treatment, having worked in various community, hospital, and psychiatric settings. I am a doctoral-trained Licensed Therapist/ CPCS with a Graduate Certification in Global Mental Health (Trauma and Recovery, Harvard CE). I work with both adults and adolescents.
I use various approaches based on the unique needs of the individual and specialize in a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transition issues, and traumatic experiences. I am committed to providing a supportive and therapeutic environment while allowing you to explore your strengths and possibilities.
