Whether it's, anxiety, grief, communication challenges, cultural trauma, bullying or feeling stuck, fear, lacking confidence, relationship challenges, limiting beliefs or a myriad of other setbacks, you are not alone. In my practice, I take a people-centered, trauma-informed, and collaborative approach. We work together to uncover what may be holding you back, empowering you to create a life that feels more aligned with who you are. I feel honored to walk this path with my clients, helping them break through barriers and connect with their inner strength.

As a registered therapeutic counselor, having experienced some big transitions in my own life, I am dedicated to assisting individuals in their personal growth and well-being journey. Whether we connect virtually or in person, my passion lies in helping you unlock the incredible power within yourself to achieve your goals and dreams.

In our one-on-one sessions, I cultivate a compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and aspirations freely. By fostering self-discovery, we work collaboratively to identify and implement strategies that enable positive change and personal growth.

I work with clients who may be struggling with limiting beliefs or trauma related to relationships or family or work. During our initial sessions we will delve into any issues at hand, and work together to create a plan that is comfortable for you to address them in a way that creates space for you to have your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual healing within the first few sessions.
