People deserve the opportunity to heal, to feel well, and to discover themselves. There are times in our lives that we may feel lost, confused, or even different. Getting in touch with yourself, your true essence, is many times what is truly calling us. A sacred, safe space can support a person's journey towards happiness, health, and feeling a sense of purpose in the world. My own journey allows me to do this for others. I am inspired by the human spirit & honored to work with people who come for my services!

As an addiction and mental health counselor, I am driven by a genuine desire to help individuals overcome their challenges and embrace a life of fulfillment. I believe that addiction is a disease that can be effectively treated through a modern approach, encompassing physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. I strongly believe in the power of collaboration, working closely with clients to co-create personalized treatment plans that address their specific goals and challenges. Through evidence-based therapeutic techniques, I empower clients to develop coping mechanisms, build resilience, and cultivate a support network.

"Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions." -Dalai Lama If you had a magic wand, what would you change? What would you keep the same? Where and what do you see yourself doing in 6months, 1 year, 5 years from now? We cannot always control what happens to us but we can work through and process the way we are coping. If you have goals or need help with setting and accomplishing goals, you are on the right track!

Life can be very challenging at times. Often, we find ourselves in places, wondering how did I get here? Or not again? Although the details may be different, you will find repeated themes in your life. The first step in solving any problem is to identify the problem. We will work together to gain an understanding of: why you are where you are at this time in your life, what you would like to change, and learn the tools needed in order to effectively make the changes and establish long and short term goals.

My goal is to provide you with a safe, non-judgmental environment in which we can work together to explore the many life challenges that are overwhelming you. I customize my therapeutic approach and practices to best serve your individual needs. This may include individual therapy, parenting sessions, family/group meetings, or a combination of multiple modalities. I recognize that we each possess unique strengths and obstacles that we want to overcome. I will work collaboratively with you to build off of those strengths and experiences to develop goals that matter to you and solutions that fit who you are.
