Fulfillment, meaning, and purpose are essential components of what I aim to work towards with clients. Collaboratively I work to understand what their vision of a fulfilling and meaningful life looks like, what is in the way, and what can realistically be done. This can take shape in many forms such as recognizing and addressing current patterns of behavior and how they serve the individual while reinforcing behaviors that bring them closer to their ideal self.

The most important aspect of counseling is to establish clear goals that the client and counselor set together. I have worked with many families in the Juvenile Justice Department as well as individual and couples counseling. Life can be overwhelming at times and that is why goals and collaborative contracts within the therapeutic relationship help to sort each issue out individually while working towards the desired outcome. I have treated symptoms of anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder, adjustment disorders, marital conflict, tic disorders, and oppositional defiant disorder as well as conduct disorder.

In life, there is so much that is out of your control and it can easily become overwhelming. We all experience adversity at some point in our lives and my hope is to help you realize how resilient you truly are. I believe there is power in telling your story and it is how your healing begins. One of my goals is to empower you to take control of your own narrative and rewrite your story the way you want it to be instead of how it has been written for you.

The majority of my life has been spent in the service of others. I graduated from Liberty University with a master’s in Professional Counseling and a Master of Arts in Human Services Counseling: Addiction and Treatment.

Not accepting new clients
NOT ACCEPTING CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. Sometimes it seems like things are never going to get better. Life feels unbearable. You didn’t plan for this. It’s unfair. You have suffered for a long time. You deserve support from a therapist who is validating, competent, tolerant, reliable, and authentic, who values your honest feedback in sessions, and is unafraid to speak up and say what needs to be said. You are doing the best you can AND have it in you to try harder and do better with the right support.
