As a dedicated mental health counselor with a specialization in schizophrenia and Trauma, my journey has been one of profound empathy, unwavering commitment, and continuous learning. Throughout my career, I have come to understand that each individual grappling with schizophrenia has a unique story to tell, and I am deeply honored to be a part of their transformative journey towards healing and self-discovery. Empathy lies at the core of my therapeutic practice. I firmly believe that the path to supporting individuals with schizophrenia requires a genuine understanding of their experiences, emotions, and challenges.

I have worked with clients with various concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, self-esteem, existential crisis, adjustment life issues, and stress management. I have also helped many people who have experienced traumatic life events. I always aim to create a safe and trusting space, so you feel free to discuss any type of concern or presenting issue. I believe in treating everyone with respect, cultural sensitivity, and compassion. I also believe that therapy is a collaborative partnership, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels where great transformation can occur when one is ready.

My goal is to provide a supportive, safe, and non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their journey of self-awareness, change, and transformation. I have training in holistic and integrative practices, incorporating yoga, mindfulness, breath-work, and meditation. I believe the mind, body, and soul are interlaced and therefore counseling should address the full self.

We all need someone to speak with at some time, especially when our lives seem out of control and overwhelming. My goal is to understand clients from a non-judgmental stance and establish a relationship that provides empathy, genuineness, and transparency. I focus on strengths and believe that clients have inner resources to effectively solve their problems. I will help you face your challenges, regain hope, and aid you in designing your future. I understand the stressors some of us endure: heartbreak, self-doubt, financial ruin, confusion, gripping fear, and uncertainty. I'm here to tell you that there is always hope.

Does your life look completely different than the one you had imagined? Divorce and breakups can make a person feel like everything they have put their faith and belief into is a lie. You may wonder who am I, what do I want and how do I trust myself again? Amidst the chaos of the loss there is opportunity for real positive life changes. Wouldn't it feel good to wake up in the morning with clarity, confidence, joy and self -love? I help take the shame, blame, denial, guilt and sadness out to uncover the truth of who you are.

My passion lies in helping individuals overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of them reaching their goals. With over a decade of experience in the field, I am dedicated to providing high-quality care to my clients. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds, and I deeply appreciate the importance of tailoring my approach to each individual's unique needs.

Our journey through life has no straight lines. It is overflowing with unpredictable twists and turns. Over time, we develop chronic and automatic responses that sap our vitality and rob us of the ability to experience the positive feelings of love, joy, and pleasure. As a result, people enter therapy wanting to change something about themselves, their circumstances or their relationships. Every person, above all else, wants to give and receive love. The client is the single, most potent contributor to successful therapeutic outcome. I, therefore, tailor treatment to the needs of each individual via office or Telehealth sessions.

There's something about taking the first step that makes us uncomfortable but you've made it here! You've probably never fit in with the crowd. Perhaps you're an introvert, a nerd, a rule breaker, the black sheep? I created Born to Fly for you. You have been dealing with mental illness, addiction or simply getting through a life transition. What would life be like if you were able to move forward with confidence and healing? "Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, she became a butterfly."

Feeling overwhelmed? Burnt out by what life has thrown your way? You are not alone. Reaching out for help is hard, but once you do, you are one step closer to positive change. My goal is to support clients through their personal journey of life, providing empathy, teaching coping skills, and creating a path to feeling better.

It is likely you made your way here because you find yourself struggling. Maybe someone who cares about you is suggesting that you get help? Maybe you have decided you want to thrive rather than just “get by?” Maybe you are ashamed or embarrassed to talk to someone? If you choose to contact me, rest assured that your specific needs will be addressed in a warm and empathetic manner.

A key to the effectiveness of therapy is the relationship itself; it's important to me that you feel accepted for exactly who you are at this moment. As your partner in change, I'm always looking beneath the surface to make meaning and connections. While helping you challenge unproductive thoughts and sharing tried and true techniques, I will help you process the experiences that have led to your current state so you can actively choose how to go forward on your journey, becoming the author of your own story. This way, you can become more resilient, better able to handle future challenges, and more prepared to rebound from setbacks.

Coming into a therapeutic environment is courageous and speaks volumes of your strength and resiliency. As quoted by Abraham Maslow, “In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.” This is your first step into growth! Therapy is a sanctuary where you can feel safe, seen, heard, and valued. My mission is to provide a calm, empathic, and nurturing environment where you can explore your own narrative.

I have a 100% online practice, and I especially enjoy working with clients who are in transition—into high school, college, or young adulthood—and are motivated to learn techniques to grow and evolve. I especially love helping teens and young adults w/ High Functioning Autism, ADHD, LD, or Social Anxiety navigate college, work, or life. Making improvements in one's life takes time and energy both inside the virtual therapy room and in daily life, and I believe that learning concrete skills to implement outside of therapy is necessary to make progress. I use a variety of technology to support clients in using skills on the daily!

My goal is to create a space for clients to be able to be themselves and share their heart with me. When speaking to me you will have the desire to release the things on your mind. I have experience with domestic violence, people facing homelessness, family transition, medical concerns, trauma, life work issues, spiritual abuse and I also have experience with Christian Counseling.

I will help you create the relationship you desire, even if your current relationship is "not working" for you - and even if the patterns of anger, hurt, and resentment have been in place for long periods of time. I have seen relationships transform even when things seem hopeless! I can help you bring back balance and harmony into all your relationships: romantic, marriage, family, parent/child, business. What my clients have found is that, as balance in relationship is healed and restored, this new "way of living" completely transforms many aspects of their lives, including their material wealth and abundance.
