You deserve to take the next step in creating the life you want. The need to work on affirming ourselves for who we are, managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and traumatic experiences, family & relationship difficulties, improving our self-esteem, navigating today's stressful world, and managing work/career issues are part of most people's experience at one time or another. I believe we all have the ability to improve our health and lives. I am here to support you.
I have more than 20 years of professional experience. Some areas of specialty include work with people from the LGBTQ+ community, self-esteem issues, depression/anxiety management, addiction/substance use issues, trauma recovery, gender affirming care/medical procedure evaluations, sex/sexuality related concerns, workplace stress, and couples counseling.
I offer both individual and relationship counseling services and guide the process in a way that is strengths based and at your own pace. I believe each person I work with deserves an individualized approach that honors who they are and what they have experienced. I believe in a person-centered, harm reduction, and trauma informed approach to counseling.
