Welcome and congratulations on taking the first steps toward a happier and healthier life! I believe in utilizing a humanistic client-centered approach to help my clients in becoming the best versions of themselves. This involves a variety of techniques in individual therapy sessions. It can be difficult to reach out to ask for support and I am here to help you see this as a sign of strength, not weakness. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed with life, or needing support while you take your next steps; I am here to help! I will provide a safe, judgement free space for you to express yourself and find your purpose.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Addiction Counselor committed to helping others. I have a Master’s Degree in Psychology and additional graduate education in Counseling Education. I have been in the field for 10 years and have experience working with mental health and addiction in both inpatient residential and outpatient settings.
I share both personal and professional experience and education with 17 years in recovery myself. I genuinely understand addiction and what recovery truly has to offer. I am grateful to be able to share my knowledge and experience to those struggling so you don’t feel alone. I’ve turned my pain into purpose and am dedicated to helping you do the same!
