I am a licensed professional counselor who has worked with individuals, couples, and families for ten years.

As a licensed professional counselor who has worked in the field of mental health for more than 8 years, I believe that each person in therapy is ultimately "the one behind the wheel". I feel that there is no one that knows you better than you. Although, having a passenger along the way can certainly help to make sense of the directions. Using a person centered approach, I will work to help you attain independence and insight when it feels as if life has gone awry. Whether you are looking to process through trauma, build a more stable lifestyle or simply want to vent about your daily stressors, I will gladly meet you where you are.

Are you your biggest critic? I believe that we can learn to be compassionate towards ourselves.  I have over 20 years experience helping individuals with anxiety, depression and trauma to cultivate more self-compassion.

I love what I do, and I know why I do it. Since 2007 my focus has been coming along side of people and assisting them with challenges they face in life to become the most authentic and genuine person they were meant to be. In my own journey I've come to accept and appreciate the gifts I've been given, even if they're seemingly unrelated. I love my work as a therapist and I will always be passionate about performing music. How the two coexist within me is the journey I'm on. My focus has been in becoming a better therapist each day ... but I also know I'll never stop playing guitar and performing music, it's part of who I am.

Experiences like a persistent state of sadness, anxiety or even anger/resentment can leave you feeling stuck. After a while, being stuck can create frustration and feelings of loneliness. Over a decade of experience in the mental health field has taught me the strength of the therapeutic relationship in supporting people to free themselves from excessive emotional pain and to create new opportunities for happiness, excitement and peace of mind.

Let’s be real: being a person is hard. That’s an easy enough fact to acknowledge, but the truly difficult part is deciding when and where to put your vulnerabilities on display. While committing to the therapeutic process can feel unpredictable and is not without its messy bits, taking a step towards prioritizing yourself and your wellbeing is an act of incredible courage.
