I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I bring a personable and practical style to my counseling approach. I believe counseling should be approachable and accessible for everyone. I’m thorough, treat clients as individuals, and guide them to their goals by joining them in a collaborative approach to face life’s challenges.

With that experience, I bring a real-world approach to counseling.

Life inevitably will present challenges and along with them, opportunities for personal growth. As a therapist, I assist individuals in locating their internal compass, so that they can better navigate through life's obstacles. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgemental environment, where I work collaboratively with the client to discover their strengths, along with what may be holding them back from achieving their full emotional and interpersonal potential. Through this therapeutic process, clients can gain insight and move forward in new and more fulfilling ways.

You ARE enough. The love and encouragement you did not receive from the people in your life was their failing, NOT yours. You ARE worthy. This is the time of your life where you are now in control.

Life happens. And there’s no shame in asking for help in times of trouble. My goal as a counselor is to provide a space and to create a relationship that you can use for your own development, as well as provide you with tools and strategies to better cope with and maybe even resolve issues when the hard times come. Together we'll work to identify what may be holding you back or keeping you down. You will gain a better understanding of why you feel the way you do and you'll be empowered with the knowledge that change is possible.

Seeking counseling is a very personal decision. Finding the right provider can be the most important step in the healing process. I believe I have helped so many clients because I use an array of tools and methods which I tailor to a client's unique goals. My approach is to work hard to understand a client's perspective and values. Sometimes this means helping the client explore and discover what that is for themselves. I lead AND follow - I may prompt, encourage, and confront, but I follow a client's pace (willingness and readiness) to delve into the issues.

Are you distracted, scattered, or disorganized? Is lack of motivation keeping you from your goals? If you are struggling to make a plan and act on it, now is the time to reach out to my team. Perhaps you have experienced a recent trauma or loss that is distracting you, or you have struggled with focusing your whole life. You might want to know the cause and have a plan to overcome it—-or you know the origin and are tired of living with it. You feel life is more difficult than it could be, if you just had the right tools. You want to feel capable, and you want the people in your life to feel you are dependable.

As a therapist and human, I strive to create a safe, grounded space that promotes connection and healing. My passion is supporting individuals around identity and LGBTQIA+ issues, trauma-related disorders, psychedelic integration therapy, substance use disorders, and eating disorders. I value the power of relation through vulnerability and take a holistic approach to therapy that encompasses physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each of my clients.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and I see children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in psychological testing and diagnostic evaluations. I do evaluations for depression, anxiety, personality disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, behavior problems, learning disorders, and others. I do evaluations in divorce, child custody, criminal, elder competency, personal injury, and other cases. I collaborate with doctors, lawyers, and other mental health professionals.

My ideal client is one that perhaps is dealing with feelings of fear, anger, envy, uncertainty, depression, perhaps amplified by strong religious convictions and spiritual uncertainty. They are particularly uncomfortable with being vulnerable often negligent in discussing feelings and issues of religion and spirituality, but will allow a few conversations to explore what their particular and specific issues and beliefs may be, including past traumas and sexual abuse issues. This client would be open to exploring their spirituality (not religion) as a means of developing and improving coping skills and spiritual strategies.

My passion is to help others find healing, peace and empowerment in their life. I offer a warm and welcoming presence as well as curiosity and openness. I have walked with many individuals who have worked through issues of anxiety, depression, eating disorders, trauma, relational difficulties and life transitions. I offer a safe place to unpack the story of your life, patterns in your relationships and places of difficulty that have burdened you or have kept you isolated. My hope is that in this work you will experience more authenticity, connection, and healing in your life.

Taking the first step into therapy can be intimidating. Being vulnerable with a complete stranger isn't the most comforting thought. It is my goal to provide an environment that allows you to feel safe to show up and be authentic without fear of judgement. We are all human beings and need help from time to time. My approach to counseling is a collaborative effort aimed at increasing self-awareness and establishing a sense of empowerment in your own life. I focus on meeting clients where they are and facilitating positive change for a healthy, successful life.

Together we can identify your unique strengths, explore tools and also develop beneficial skills that can assist you in your struggles. I sincerely look forward to working with you!

Thank you for taking a moment to consider me for your counseling needs! I'm a counselor that specializes in children and adolescents, but has a wide scope of experience, ranging from severe mental illness, to parenting, to women's empowerment, and grief.
