I am passionate about empowering people to make positive changes in their lives. I recognize that people have the ability to change, but often lack the confidence or direction to do so. I do not believe there is a one-size fits all approach to therapy and I strive to develop genuine connections so that therapeutic services are personalized to the needs of each client.

Sometimes, we find ourselves in life struggling with what we should do next and how to accomplish this. Often times, we can find ourselves in a dark place in which there seems to be no light at the end, possibly no hope of ever seeing light again. Some struggle with addiction, loss, and depression and are afraid to seek out help to manage the disease of addiction as well as loss. Often, we are afraid to reach out for help because we do not want to be embarrassed or judged by others. In the end, you want to be able to see the light and live a life free of the difficulty that you may have.
