The hardest mountain to climb is the one within, what does your mountain look like? Each person's healing journey to the top of their mountain, no matter how small or fraught with twists and turns, is important and deserves a safe, authentic space to be heard. Healing is not a linear process. It takes commitment, honesty, motivation, and oftentimes tough work to face one's reality versus where they want to be. Healing also takes a supportive and empathetic shoulder to help carry the burden as you reach your goals. I would be honored to help you discover your confidence, values, truths, and ultimately, summit your mountain.

Life is complex. There are times when anxiety, depression, trauma, personal issues (relationships, family, career), and substances are experienced. And there are times where joy and excitement are experienced. You need a safe, nonjudgmental, and trusting space to talk about your experience, feel validated and heard, explore solutions, and press forward in your success. My therapeutic style is laid-back, warmth, empathic, compassionate, strength oriented, and lastly using humor to therapeutically laugh during times when it is appropriate. I will meet you where you’re at in your journey!

Hello! I am an Intern/QMHP-T who enjoys working with people who are looking for a safe, supportive environment. I have experience providing therapy to clients living with depression, anxiety, and other mood-related disorders. I also work with substance abuse and LGBTQ clients. My view of counseling is to help create feelings of acceptance and safety for all.

I welcome and encourage anyone who has been affected by substance abuse, trauma, mood disorders or relationship difficulties to inquire about services. Since 2010 I have spent my life’s work providing treatment to those who are seeking relief from emotional pain caused by self or others. I operate from a place of hope as I believe it stands for 'Hold On, Pain Ends' and will spend time conveying that hope to you. Throughout the course of treatment building resiliency and empowerment, exploring identity, developing meaning in life and healing from past harms are all aspects of this process to move you towards your ideal self.

I enjoy "MAKING LIFE & LOVE BETTER." . With my 20 plus years of experience as a relationship counselor, my goal is to provide personal counseling for individuals and couples (married or partnered). My approach incorporates a combination of traditional, contemporary and holistic counseling techniques. You will find my office to be a comfortable living-room like setting conducive to privacy, safety and relaxation. Each session is tailored to meet the special needs of the client or clients. CONFIDENTIALITY is always in place except when permission is given by the client.

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile! My primary goal as a therapist is to make sure that each session is client-centered. This means that YOU are the main focus of therapy! I aim to ensure that therapy sessions are tailored to meet the needs of each client so that the individual can feel comfortable, supported, heard, accepted, and most of all-ready to grow. I tailor sessions to fit each client by integrating the client’s strengths and interests into sessions (art, writing, crafting, and music). One of my favorite things to integrate into session (when appropriate) is humor! I love to laugh!

I am passionate about helping others succeed in improving their mental health so they may live healthy life. I believe each stage of life brings an opportunity to grow and challenges to be faced. Due to people’s backgrounds and mental health issues, they may lack the skills or emotional stability to navigate circumstances on their own. My goal is to provide an empathetic, non-judgmental, warm, and attentive environment that produces personal growth and wholeness. A place where the individual may feel comfortable sharing pains and struggles in life as well as developing self-compassion and resilience.
