Adolescence and young adulthood is a time of great transition both mentally and physically. At NextGen Counseling, support is provided for teens and adults to help navigate the seemingly overwhelming emotions they are experiencing from the world around them.

I work with mental health struggles for adults of all ages including depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, trauma, and stress.

I offer individual, couple and family therapy using a marriage and family therapy systemic approach. Through the use of a systemic approach, I explore the issues you bring to therapy in the context of your world and important relationships in your life. My role as a therapist is to empower you to help yourself. I believe when we personally see the need for change and are intrinsically motivated to change, we experience movement in therapy at a much faster rate than if we are pushed to change by outside sources. Let me help you find your intrinsic self-worth.

I love diversity! I especially enjoy working with clients who have never been to therapy before. I pride myself on making clients feel comfortable.

My down-to-earth approach provides clients with the professional counseling relationship they need to work through their stresses & problem situations without the uncomfortable feeling of working with a "stuffy" therapist. I don't know everything & don't pretend to. Let's start your journey to a better life!
