As a mental health professional for over 20 years, I have always been passionate about changing lives. My clinical background includes forensic mental health and medical social work. It is remarkable to see the gradual progress in clients and the transformative power of therapy at work. The most rewarding part of counseling is the therapeutic relationship with the client and how that foundation is used as a catalyst for change. I love to see the light and joy come back in my client's lives!
I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, grief, stress management, life transitions, workplace challenges, and relational concerns. I focus on partnering with the client in creating treatment goals that are achievable and sustainable. It is awesome to see how a different way of thinking and how small behavioral changes can make a difference.
I know it can be difficult at times to admit that you need help or ask for help. It takes courage and humility to seek counseling, but your desire to be a better version of yourself, improve your relationships, and take control of your own happiness will be one of the best decisions you can make.

I primarily work from a Cognitive Behavioral lens because I want you to be aware of the power of your thoughts and their connection to your mood and behavior. I really want to facilitate insight and awareness of your thinking and how it influences your actions. I am strength-based and person-centered in that I believe you are already equipped with resources and have that capacity for growth.
