Thank you for considering my support in your journey. Finding a therapist can be a task with so many professionals to choose from. If you are looking for a professional who is non-judgmental, well versed, and very easy to talk to, I may be a good fit for you. I offer a wealth of knowledge in many different areas due to my educational background, work experience and personal familiarity. I have experience working with children and adults. I also have worked in many different settings including but not limited to (college campus, jails, courts, child protective services and community).

As a therapist, I am blessed to witness the power that individuals have to persevere - even thrive - in the face of life's most difficult problems. I know that every patient brings their own courage, strength and skills, though they may not recognize these aspects of themselves. As a Christian, I understand the power of grace, having experienced it in my own life. And, what I appreciate most about the therapeutic relationship is the opportunity to share grace with others while helping them move beyond the emotional, behavioral, or relational issues that keep them from having the life they desire.

My approach to counseling and psychotherapy is to build a positive, trusting relationship. This facilitates healing and lasting change. My trainings and ongoing personal development allow me to do effective counseling that makes a measurable difference in the lives of individual, couples, and families. It would be my pleasure to assist you in healing, and creating the life and relationships your heart deeply desires.

I believe the human mind is an amazingly resilient and resourceful machine. In the face of chaos, trauma, abuse, and other negative situations, it creates coping skills. Unfortunately, these coping skills - escapism, withdrawal, numbness, hyper-vigilance, trauma repetition, among others - often become maladaptive over time in the forms of anxiety, depression, addiction, etc. I see people not as "broken", but with coping skills that just are not helpful anymore. Learning is the key - learning new ways of doing and new ways of thinking can solve almost any dilemma.

I enjoy working with people who believe they are at their breaking point and don't know what else to do. Whether it be "mid-life crisis", going off to college, school and work demands, relationship issues, struggles with parenting, stress, depression, anxiety or ADD. Do you look in the mirror and not recognize yourself? Does your teen appear to be struggling? Do you often wonder if there is something more? Have your friends or family told you that counseling might help you? If you are wondering if you would benefit from counseling then you would benefit from counseling. Life doesn't have to be this hard for you or someone you love.

We all experience transitions throughout our lives — big and small, planned and unplanned, and some are harder than others. The death of a loved one, loss/change of employment, divorce/problems with relationships (mate, parents, children), or other events. A life transition is any change or adjustment that impacts your life in a significant way. If you find yourself experiencing a high degree of distress during a life transition that is significantly impacting your mood, ability to work, social interactions, or any other important life area and simply don't know what to do next, I'm here to assist you through the process.

Living life on life's terms is rough. Often we hit a bump in the road for various reasons: broken relationships, declining health, depression, unresolved grief, drugs, or we are dissatisfied with our lives, and we feel that we deserve better. We don't want to be judged, but enough is enough, and we need to talk about it before we act out about it. If this is you or someone you know, then the staff at the Evolve Center can help. We have a diverse staff of counselors, social workers, coaches, and medical practitioners ready to help. Call us today for a free and confidential consultation.

Effective therapy begins with an authentic relationship between client and therapist. When this is established, possibilities are virtually endless. I tailor my approach to your needs with whatever you are experiencing or what your goals are. We might identify and understand core causes of dysfunctional thinking and behavior keeping you stuck. We can reprocess deep traumas or anxieties. Ultimately, we can understand and remove barriers keeping you from who you want to be or the peace you desire.

I support individuals who are looking to gain insight and improve on the relationship with themselves and others around them. Seeking mental health support is a powerful step to self love, empowerment, and healing. I work from a trauma informed and social justice lens utilizing a variety of therapy modalities according to your story and goals. Therapy will equip you with the necessary tools to make the changes you want for yourself.

Are you feeling stressed, depressed , anxious, worried, isolated, frustrated or fearful? Do you need help resolving everyday challenges with work/life balance, school, relationships, family, and/or interpersonal issues? With all of todays challenges, self-care is of the utmost importance. I believe in a holistic approach to wellness with a focus on balancing your mind, body and soul to achieve personal satisfaction.

Do you struggle with boundaries, feeling left out, anxiety, depression, and trauma? If these challenges impact your relationships or complicate your life, I want you to know I am here to help. By being open to working through these struggles and searching for answers, we can build insight and succeed. From my experience, anyone who sets goals of bettering their mental health and consistently works towards those goals, can and will become successful.

We all struggle at times, but you don't have to do it alone. When life brings tests and trials, we may need some extra support and clarity. Whether or not you have received counseling before, it takes awareness and courage to reach out for professional help. I can assist you with discovering and building upon your own inner strengths and resources.

I am dedicated to guiding individuals on their journey toward healing and self-discovery. My therapeutic approach focuses on helping you identify areas of personal growth and positive change, and together, we will collaboratively work to achieve these goals. I am committed to empowering you to harness your intrinsic strength and self-worth, providing a warm and inviting space where healing can begin or continue
