I specialize in working with a range of individuals, from preteen to adults.
I am currently a pre-licensed intern with Navigant Counseling, and am working under supervision as I prepare to graduate with a masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in December of 2024. Following December, I will transition to a masters leveled pre-licensed clinician with Navigant. During our time together, I want to focus on building a collaborative relationship in order to understand your lifestyle, and what you need out of counseling services. It's my priority to have you feel safe, heard, and allow you to reach your goals.

Over the past 14 years I have put together a unique system of problem solving and planning called "Growing The Whole Way". This system teaches how to think bigger and work with the mind, body, and spirit for better results in making change. It also supports taking care of yourself in the process. My workbook includes key concepts and practical strategies to help with motivation, organization, and meaningful planning. It also teaches efficiency along with follow through and self development. Once complete this book can become a personalized reference outside of session time. This system can also be used again for future goals.

After graduating from social work school 46 years ago, it has been my privilege to have partnered with and met all kinds of people from all walks of life presenting with a myriad of struggles. From my perspective, treatment is all about improving one's quality of life. Experience has shown me that with the appropriate amount of support and reality testing, most people are quite capable of addressing their challenges and feeling better about themselves. I prefer using a more traditional psychodynamic approach to treatment. Such an approach emphasizes providing a positive space for people to change.

Many of my clients are looking to make changes in their lives in order to find peace and joy within themselves and their relationships . Typically my clients come to me because they have been feeling depressed, anxious, or struggling with self esteem and are looking to change how they have been feeling and the quality of their lives.

I believe everyone has a story to tell and share how their experiences have shaped them into who they are today. My approach to treatment is empowering the people I work with to voice who they are and what their strengths and struggles may be. I like to use a strength based approach when working with individuals, families and groups while helping them develop their own treatment goals which are meaningful and real to them. I welcome the opportunity to work with you and allow you to share your journey and personalized goals for therapy.
