Hello, and welcome to my profile! I am a licensed Professional Counselor with over 6 years of experience working with people experiencing complex trauma, depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. I've also worked with teens, individuals and couples experiencing separation and loss, family conflict, and parenting problems. I earnestly believe that no matter the circumstances that may surround us, personal success is possible. Therefore, my goal as a counselor is to help my clients discover who they truly are in their core, by clearing out all the unnecessary clutter in their lives. I can't wait to start this journey of self.

My client is open to working together in the therapy process. Together, we can decide your goals and map out a plan to achieve them. I work with clients presenting with: anxiety disorders, mood disorders, alcohol and substance use disorders; trauma/stressor disorders; life adjustments; codependency; & self-esteem. Also, clients will be supported in improving their emotional regulation; improving relationships in their lives; and also cultivating the relationship they wish to have with themselves as a person.

Relationships are complicated and often very stressful and upsetting. I work with people who are grappling to communicate better with the most important people in their lives. Wanting to be heard, understood, supported and loved is human nature. This can sometimes be a challenge without outside, neutral help. Misunderstandings often can get in the way of intimate relationships, leaving each person feeling alone, disillusioned and their actions misconstrued. I see my job as someone who can help navigate these confusing dynamics and openly talk about the possible underlying feelings that led to these behaviors in the first place.

Taking the step to reach out to a therapist takes courage, so I appreciate your willingness and desire to start therapy, increase support, and make healthy changes in your life. My primary goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space for you. We will navigate your journey together in that space, starting where you are now and collaborating on future goals. Utilizing a person-centered approach, you’ll begin to unlock skills you have within, develop new ones, and strengthen your overall coping strategies and mental health.

In our sessions, we'll explore not only the challenges you're facing but also the deeper truths and wisdom within you.
