Through life’s experiences, I have learned that our pain is never wasted and identify as a wounded healer whose purpose is to live out Isaiah 61:1-3. I seek to connect with my clients in a compassionate way to work collaboratively in the counseling process. I work with women, young adults, couples, families, children, and adolescents. I am passionate about helping children and teenagers express their emotions and understand their own mental health. I understand that it is important to work with the family system as well and incorporate parents and caregivers in the process as needed.

Life is a journey and everyone's trial and tribulations are different. In life, it is inevitable that change occurs and that can be an overwhelming venture to embark on alone. I can be a tool and a resource for you during your time of need. I am passionate about helping others; it is a calling in my life. As Elisabeth Kubler-Ross stated, "Beautiful people do not just happen." Ross's statement has always sparked a fire within me, as I know from personal and professional experience that strength comes from within and growth comes from pain, sometimes we just need a little help.

As your therapist I have made the agreement to meet you where you are. I will not force or tell you what to do, but I will walk beside you. I will be present and provide a safe place for you to share what you feel comfortable sharing. Therapy is an investment in yourself, your future and your loved ones. I am a committed therapist that will help assist you in getting to the root of your problems, overcoming challenges and making positive changes. Life is short and the quality of your life matters, I understand the importance of feeling presence and connection.

Although my expertise covers a wide range of mental health areas, my focus has been on adolescents and families experiencing problems with adapting to life challenges. I have often worked with children and adolescents on couples and families on relationship issues and life transitions. Relationships grow and evolve as individuals move to different stages of life. Maintaining healthy relationships during times of change requires focused attention on individual and family systems needs. Life goals and long term aspirations can be distorted by near term priorities.

Are you a woman who is at a crossroads in your life, feeling like something is missing, but you can’t quite put your finger on it? You’re ambitious and want more out of life, but you feel you have reached a point of stagnation and don’t know where to go from here. Despite achieving certain personal or professional milestones, you are left feeling unfulfilled and questioning whether you are on the right path. Maybe a big life change—a breakup, job change, change in family dynamic, or a move—has highlighted the fact that you’re still not as happy as you want to be and your old ways of coping aren’t as effective as they used to be.

I firmly believe in the capacity of human resilience, and the potential to build a balanced life. Life can present itself with unpredictable situations that may prevent us from reaching our full potential; in these moments seeking help can be beneficial. Having a compassionate, nonjudgmental counselor assist you through this transition can help clarify confusion, gain insight regarding your pain, and return your life to balance.

My desire is to provide my clients a clear perspective, free from the clutter that is likely clouding judgment, understanding, or perspective. Together we can navigate the issues and concerns and create a solution that is fitting for each client. Our solutions will ultimately be Specific to your needs - Measurable as your journey improves - Attainable as you gain more confidence - Realistic as you determine your strengths and weaknesses - Time sensitive as you regain your independence (SMART). These motivational factors will be key to my focus and your recovery in any aspect of your life.

ACCELERATED RESOLUTION THERAPY Therapist… If you've decided to seek help and you're entrusting a therapist with your most personal concerns, it is vitally important that the fit be right. Hope and relief come sooner when you find a therapist you feel comfortable with and has the experience you need. I have been in the ministry of helping individuals, families and couples most of my adult life. I balance the concerns you have while also ministering. I strive to meet people where they are, help them understand their strengths, and aid in the empowerment of taking charge of and developing their lives.
