It can be difficult to reach out and ask for help. Still, with openness, courage, and vulnerability, we can work together to help address whatever hurt, challenges, or life events you face. I am here if you feel sad, stressed out, have trouble coping, or need someone to listen. I will gather a comprehensive health and background history to understand the struggles and how they have impacted you. Then, I will apply a strength-based integrative approach, pulling on different interventions to explore the core issues affecting your life; together, we will identify strategies to restore you to health and wholeness.
With over 10 years of professional experience, I work with youth and adults offering individual, couples, and group counseling. I address anxiety, mood-related issues, life stress and transitions, grief and loss, and self-confidence, among others. You are the expert on your story, and you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming challenges.
I focus on the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I practice cultural humility and will treat you with openness, respect, and compassion. It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready, I will support and empower you to make the changes in a safe and trusting relationship.
