Anxiety, depression, anger, insecurities, and trauma can make even our simplest daily routine seem daunting and prevent us from living a full, happy life.

My personal philosophy in life is that you can do anything you set your mind to when you have the support and faith to spur you forward. Without support or a belief system, I believe it’s harder if not impossible to be a better/matured version of yourself. If you have felt stuck or felt unmotivated by life's present challenges or past hurts and pains or just overwhelmed by it all, You have a place to find that comfort, guidance, and solutions, where it was believed there, were not.

As a mental health counselor, I am committed to creating a safe, empathetic, and supportive space for my clients. I believe that there is not a “one size fits all” approach to therapy; therefore, I utilize an eclectic approach to best address each client’s unique needs and goals. I enjoy sharing my knowledge of psychology with my clients and aim to help them gain insight into their emotions, learn healthy coping skills, develop tools to achieve their personal goals, and improve their self-esteem. My goal is to empower my clients throughout their journey in pursuing positive mental health.

My therapeutic style involves an eclectic and collaborative approach. I work with children, adolescences, adults and couples.There are many different kinds of psychotherapy.

I work with you to tailor the counseling process and make it an enjoyable and effective experience.

My goal is to help you navigate through challenges - the grey areas - that make you feel powerless. I hope to help you discover meaning and your own unique center of gravity that will positively change the way you view yourself, others, and the world.

I believe that the most important foundation of therapy is to provide a safe and supportive environment for my clients to be their most authentic selves. I am here to help clients navigate and sort through the chaos of life in a way that will provide understanding, comfort, and growth. I utilize a person-centered approach, by meeting my clients where they are in the present moment, and identifying various techniques that can empower and motivate clients throughout their life. I also integrate cognitive behavioral techniques to reframe thoughts that can change behaviors.

Trauma impacts all areas of life. We may experience sudden, intrusive memories of childhood experience. We may struggle to manage our own children, and we may have problems connecting with others and building healthy relationships. Psychotherapy can help you re-frame your experience, and assist you in identifying, clarifying and prioritizing your values and coping skills, opening the door to a more meaningful life.
