Do you have a desire to create change? Are you experiencing feelings of low self-worth? I can help you identify thoughts that perpetuate the cycle of unhappiness and repeated mistakes.

Feeling stressed or alone? Do you find it difficult to ask for help because you don't want to burden your friends or family? Life can be hard, but you don't have to do it alone. As a licensed counselor my primary focus is on anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, and I am committed to supporting individuals throughout their journey towards recovery. Additionally, I provide guidance to family members who are coping with a loved one's substance abuse. My training has prepared me to assist clients in navigating through difficult feelings and emotions. I understand the impact these issues can have on personal relationships.

I am a LSW with years of experience treating teen/adolescents and their families. My areas of specialty and focus are depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, mood disorders, and trauma.

My ideal client would be someone who is trying to make connections from their past to the present, not to relive their past, but to understand why they may be struggling in the present.

Changing the response to the narrative is important to be able to move forward from your past experiences.

My ideal client is curious about themselves and the world and actively participates in the therapeutic process. I enjoy working with young adults and older adults, but I'm not limited to these populations. My ideal client is at a place of feeling "stuck" in their life. Whether that be a career transition, deciding on a college major, feeling lost in a relationship, or a new onset of symptoms. I am also comfortable with helping individuals unpack their past to understand their current habits. My ideal client wants to understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to develop self-awareness and self-compassion along the way.

I enjoy working with clients who want to be in therapy voluntarily. Even if they are guarded, not wanting to change, and struggling with the commitment of therapy, as long as they want to be there, I enjoy working with them. Their issues, needs, and goals can be from various mental health concerns, but as long as they fit into my scope of practice, I aim to be the guide they need to achieve their goals. I am there to provide them with a safe and non-judgmental space for them to truly be themselves and allow them the opportunity to develop their strengths and better understand themselves.
