My experience and training with adolescents, adults, and families in these settings has given me a practical knowledge and understanding when working alongside my clients to facilitate change.

Are you an adult, notably a man, and/or someone who stutters struggling with stress, anxiety, and/or depression? Maybe you want to talk about it but don’t know where to turn and don't want to be judged or feel vulnerable? Perhaps you feel like no one understands what you’re going through. As a man who stutters, I hear you. You are not alone. Unfortunately, many adults and/or people who stutter try “white-knuckling” it and play tug-a-war with themselves until they burn out. I encourage you to take a moment. Breathe. Change is possible. This will be challenging, and you can feel like yourself again and be in more control of your life.

I have a particular interest in helping young adults experiencing elevated symptoms of depression and anxiety due to life transitions, low self-esteem, and the impacts of social media.
Hi there! I'm a licensed counselor with a desire to help individuals become acutely aware of their worth and purpose in the world. Through an exploration of each individual’s unique psychosocial history and presenting circumstances, we collaboratively determine the evidenced-based treatment interventions that best cater to the client. I find value in incorporating a multi-systemic framework, helping clients identify how their various systems (family, friends, work, school, and community) contribute to presenting symptoms. I also welcome the opportunity to integrate faith into sessions to the extent that one is comfortable.

I specialize in working with adults who are struggling with symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use, low self-esteem, life transitions, and stress management.
Making impactful, long-lasting change can be difficult. Draining mental health symptoms, substance use, and trauma can contribute to making positive lasting change feel like an impossible and daunting task. I understand the importance of wanting to find that immediate relief, as well as identifying and treating the root of the problem. An essential part of our work is exploring the past and making connections between the past and present. I enjoy getting to know my clients as individuals, assisting them in their journey of learning about themselves, and helping them learn the skills they need to live a more meaningful life.
