An author by the name of Vivian Greene quoted, "Life is not about waiting for the STORM to pass, it's about learning to DANCE in the rain." The presence of adversities (STORMS) sometimes come to us by surprise or develops over a significant time. For me as a Licensed Mental Health Professional, I identify my therapeutic and counseling services as a tool used to help Individuals and Families navigate through life STORMS.

In life one will encounter many challenges and obstacles. Support can differ for each individual as change is inevitable. Sometimes help is needed to move forward on the journey to conquering the unknown and the path to inner peace. Everyone desires to embrace change and create possibilities for achievement of goals.

We all face difficult challenges or situations that affect our way of life, who we are, and our social/family environments resulting in hurt, pain, depression, anxiety, feeling of grief/loss, and need to be validated and accepted. No one should go through these challenges alone as I meet you where you are in life's travels and assist you in navigating these difficulties with my years of experience and education. My practice includes individuals (children, adolescents, and adults), couples, and families. If you are looking for a supportive, non-judgmental counselor, give me a call.

Life transitions and stressors cause us to re-examine our present sense of being. Overwhelming emotions, thoughts, and feelings can get the best of us. We get lost in our thoughts, creating feelings of resentment, anxiety, depression, and overall defeat. This cyclic thought process impacts the quality of our lives and overflows into other meaningful relationships we care about, such as our spouses, friends, family, co-workers, and children. My role in this therapeutic relationship is to help you reach your true potential by discovering a sense of acceptance, contentment, and freedom from issues that have previously kept you stagnant

I am a virtual Licensed Clinical Social Worker therapist in CA, SC and AK, I utilize a relatively active therapeutic modality. For the client, this means that we participate in discussions and explorations. Trauma or other painful emotional experiences can lead to overwhelming emotions in “utter aloneness”; undoing that aloneness through a supportive and encouraging relationship with your therapist is key to healing. Many therapists focus on what is wrong with a person; I focus on what is right and potentially transformative.
