I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and devout Catholic. It is my dream to incorporate my faith in a direct way through my work with clients. Although I am passionate about my faith and combining it in practice, my goal is to allow the client to dictate where they are in the spiritual and emotional journey. The most successful therapy takes place when clients are able to be vulnerable, and express their needs honestly in treatment. I specialize in working with adolescents; however, I also work with children, adults and families. My background involves work with trauma, family issues, anxiety, depression, and attachment.

I hope to provide a safe and supportive space where individuals can explore, grow and learn, as they move toward greater clarity and connection in their lives and relationships. I desire that my clients would have the opportunity to work through their challenges in a collaborative and empathetic environment integrating research-based methods and a Christian worldview at the clients request.
