I enjoy working with young adults and adults who recognize something is off. Are you stressed out at work or school? Or are you just tired, just exhausted, and crash every night as soon as you come home? Are you feeling unmotivated to do even the simplest tasks? Are you worried that you may say, do, or wear the wrong thing day after day? Do you lash out at others and then you think, “Where in the world did that come from?!” Are relationships difficult for you? If any of these sound like something you have experienced before, then I am here to help.

You’re tired of waking up with cement on your chest. It’s hard to breathe. You’re exhausted before you even get out of bed, and when you do, you’re walking on eggshells in your own home. The isolation is mentally and physically exhausting. Friends don’t understand you, and your family can’t relate. As you become further isolated, you grow resentful, bitter, and angry.

I provide counseling to teens and adults; individuals, couples, and families; with a trauma informed, diversity informed, LGBTQ inclusive approach. My approach to therapy is foremost client centered. I view the role of the therapist as "helper" or "sidekick." While I will contribute my know-how, I am aware that my clients know the "what" and that we discover the "why" together in our sessions. In sessions, my objectives are your objectives. I think that perspective is vital to empowering you so that together we can accomplish the goals that caused you to seek counseling. Feeling safe and supported is vital.
