People seek a counselor for a number of reasons. You are likely feeling down and mentally fatigued, overwhelmed, stuck in a rut, scared, or you may be struggling with substances. You are valuable, and you deserve a peaceful and fulfilling life. I am here to help you achieve your goals, and build tools to help you manage adversity. Since 2005 I have enjoyed working in outpatient settings, emergency mental health treatment, residential, and community mental health agencies. I am currently accepting clients for individual outpatient counseling.

Whether you’re grappling with OCD/anxiety, trauma, depression, or simply feeling stuck, we’ll approach the process step by step, tailoring it to your unique needs and preferences.

I think the first thing someone seeking help needs to release is a sense of wrongness - "I let this happen," "I'm no good," "If only I had..." These are all normal, human responses, but they are also hurtful and create a false sense of self. The reason I became a counselor was to help those individuals carrying around guilt and shame. It affects everything - your relationships, your work, everything! I want everyone to thrive and live their fullest life. Being able to see yourself clearly, not for what you've done or did not do, is a powerful healing agent.

Therapy oftentimes begins with searching for relief of symptoms related to trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction, and help with stressors of life.
