At times in our lives we can be unexpectedly faced with difficult and challenging circumstances. Reaching out for help and support is a courageous first step. I am whole-heartedly committed to helping you address your needs and concerns in a compassionate, caring way. I have worked with a variety of clients from diverse backgrounds and draw from both my clinical and lived experiences in creating for clients a safe, accepting environment.
My passion for clinical work originated from my own journey of healing and self-discovery. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families, with a special focus on neuro diversity, trauma, and adjusting to life changes.
My expertise is in creating individualized treatment plans to help you navigate your way through hardship or uncertainty toward clarity, growth, and healing. I am dedicated to providing you support that incorporates your innate strength and unique perspective in a client-centered approach. Contact me or go to sunrayfamilycounseling.com to learn more.
