It is my personal and professional belief that everyone can discover their most authentic and successful self but may occasionally need assistance in their journey to personal enrichment and empowerment. I have been lucky enough to find those people in my own life, and I consider it an honor to serve that purpose for my clients in a warm, welcoming, yet professional fashion. I respect the individual needs of varying cultural backgrounds and enjoy finding common ground with diverse clientele. I specialize in substance abuse, behavior and relational issues in adolescents and young adults, grief and loss, depression and anxiety.

While everyone struggles sometimes not everyone struggles the same way. To help meet you were you are in your journey I use a variety of approaches. I believe in helping you find your inner strength through strength based approaches, increasing your awareness of your thoughts, feelings, and emotions through Mindfulness based interventions and other cognitive behavioral approaches. I also believe that all individuals should be treated with autonomy, dignity and fairness. In working with individuals I bring compassion, understanding and empathy to each session. I have experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds.

My approach to therapy is to embark on a journey of discovery with compassion. Listening for themes of untapped, desire, yearning, and detangling the confines that seem limiting our potential for growth. Together, we can illuminate the darkness of unexplored beauty that lies in the wreckage of unprocessed trauma to empower and embolden you to pursue future aspirations.

Our desire at the Restoration Center is to meet you where you are. We have a diverse group of therapists ready to be with you on your journey. Please visit our website where you will find our providers along with their specialities.

My goal with anyone interested in counseling is to "meet you where you are at ". Feeling comfortable with your counseling experience is very important to me. With therapy, it is essential to provide non-judgmental feedback with an understanding that everyone is unique regarding their therapeutic needs. I am here to offer you a multidisciplinary approach regarding your concerns, rather than a "one size fits all approach". We investigate together the concerns that brought you into counseling with the idea of working together to sort out the important details. Bringing yourself to the origin of your concerns is the goal.

You are unique in all the world! There is no one just like you with your story or life. Your family, pets, friends, community--where you came from--what you have overcome and endured-all these make you the unique person you are. At some time you may wish to turn the page on your story. My therapy involves walking with you while you decide where you want to go from here--who the person is that you want to be--how you want your life and story to change. I will listen and challenge, support and invite you to learn new skills and growth.

Note: I am currently accepting new individual clients (adolescents/teens/adults). I have a waiting list for couples presently. Hey there! On the surface, things look good, but your anxiety has been driving your car for a while now. Stressors and responsibilities keep stacking up and you are overwhelmed and feeling stuck. You have spent your life people-pleasing and you’ve forgotten who you are and what you need/want. You believe that even if you knew what you needed, you are unsure how to move forward. You've been searching for balance and peace for a while now though and are ready to take the first step in finding it.

As a therapist, I believe that change happens in therapy when there is an authentic relationship that yields a safe place for people to explore and address their feelings in a non-judgmental and comfortable way. I feel I am gifted in building true connections through empathy. In my practice, I meet people where they are in life & work to ensure that client's feel valued and empowered in the therapy process. God designs people beautifully & individually. It is my desire to help each of my clients explore that within themselves and to discover the true joy that comes when we can see life in this light.

You deserve better. It’s as simple as that. Yet believing it is one thing and achieving it is another. Life’s uncertainties keep coming and your responsibilities are still calling. It feels like you are being pulled and all directions to keep your family and house afloat. You may be trying to hold everything and everyone together, yet it all keeps falling apart. Just when it feels like everything is going well, you start to worry about when the other shoe will drop. Do these thoughts resonate? Possibly life is going okay for you, yet your child can’t cope with all of life’s changes.
