Life's challenges can seem so overwhelming at times that we lose sight of our inner strength. Together, we will nurture and rebuild that strength so that life can feel good again! Imagine the life of a seed - buried beneath the dark, lonely, constricting soil. If the seed considered its future, it would feel bleak and hopeless. Yet within that seed lies the unseen power to break through the soil with strength and grace. We are in many ways, just like that seed - full of potential! Whether you are seeking help for your child or yourself - I am here for you. Just as importantly, I will be here to encourage you with a caring heart!
I am a licensed professional counselor, specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy. We will work together to find just the right tools to meet your anxiety, depression, or other challenges head on. Working collaboratively, we'll tackle goals such as increased confidence, personal insight, and the skills and strategies needed to take on any challenge!
Our office is a place where you will feel welcomed and respected! Here, you will find peace and strength amidst the struggles you face. Together, we will sort through the weeds of life to uncover the seeds of strength and courage that lie within you or your child. Together, we will learn to cope so that then, you will be free to soar - at Our Place To Soar!

When treating OCD, I primarily utilize ERP (Exposure Response Prevention). For clients who experience anxiety, CBT is often highly effective. For many clients suffering from OCD and anxiety, I use a combination of both approaches.
