At Arise & Shine Counseling, I firmly believe that not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced. It is my hope that our partnership will reinforce the understanding that asking for help is a symbol of strength. I will partner with you and guide you through the barriers of depression, anxiety, trauma, codependency, and relationship challenges.
I have a vast breadth of experience in the field of mental health and addiction, working with a diverse population from hospitals, community agencies to the criminal justice system. I use an eclectic blend of therapeutic approaches that include mindfulness, cognitive behavior, and strength-based approaches. My style is supportive, caring, and compassionate.
I believe feeling understood is the most important starting point on any journey towards self-discovery. This joint collaboration will help you find healing, strength, and hope in the midst of adverse circumstances. I welcome you into my private practice.
