Serenity Counseling is a mental health practice that consistently believes in a modern approach to healing the mind. I go so much beyond just talking things out. I study the person/family history and use an experiential approach to treat mental health. I am passionate about helping clients accept the strengths that exist already within them.

I am a seasoned therapist who can help you overcome a wide range of problems. I have worked with many families who have neurodivergenton members, autism, and ADHD.

I believe that healing is ongoing, met by exploring our inner most thoughts and feelings. I have experience supporting adolescents & adults who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma symptoms, and relationship challenges. I help my clients work through issues that are impacting their life and relationships. I serve as a guide as people work on shifting their view of themselves and the world through improving self-esteem, self-worth, and interpersonal dynamics. I value processing how life experiences have shaped who we are and who we are becoming. My approach is depth-based, with a focus on attachment theory.

So, you are the one who "doesn't need anyone's help". You ignore the red flags in relationships or neglect yourself because someone needs you. You're the overwhelmed person who wears the happiness mask even though you are feeling drained, depleted or trying to heal your past traumas. Life is about transitions, and we need support getting through the rough patches. You are more resilient, capable of healing, worthy of love, and deserving of peace than you may realize. If you’re ready to reduce the stress, heal, or confidently achieve peace for a better quality of life, you're in the right place.

I am a psychotherapist for adult individuals and couples. Do you want stronger, clearer and healthier relationships?

I offer both individual and couples counseling to adults of all ages, also teaching mindfulness meditation when desired. In addition to ameliorating symptoms, decreasing emotional pain, and helping to solve difficult problems, therapy and meditation can facilitate significant personal growth and increased wellness. My approach is broadly humanistic, meaning we seek together in a safe and secure environment, mutual understanding of you as a whole person, honing your internal "voice" and tapping into your existing strengths. Once we identify who you really are and what is most important to you, the path to bringing your life into alignment becomes clearer.
