I believe that people seek out counseling because they feel that they are lacking guidance and are struggling to make sense of the problem(s) or issue(s) they are experiencing. In other words, they feel “stuck”. Because of this, they are searching for a way to change, move forward, or process their own thoughts and feelings related to whatever is causing their problem. Each person has the option to take charge of their own narrative and change their current problems or circumstances or create a new life all together. Through the counseling process, I am able to help my clients accomplish that and move forward.

Since then I have seen adult and children alike to help foster positive change because trauma is a lifelong challenge.
I have always put my time and effort into understanding, healing, and preventing trauma. I was diagnosed with ADHD very late in life and had to cope for a majority of my life with little to no understanding. I've found myself more and more interested in understanding neurodivergent minds to guide and educate them towards something positive.
