As a Board Certified and Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I take a whole-person approach to therapy, recognizing the connection between emotional well-being, physical health, and overall life balance. I strive to provide a genuine, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are.
My ideal clients include adults navigating mood disorders, stress, life transitions, addiction, sexual concerns, and the challenges that can come with high-pressure environments. I work particularly well with first responders, helping professionals, and individuals seeking a neurodivergent-affirming approach.
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to help clients build insight, strengthen resilience, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Walk-and-talk sessions are also available for those who prefer a more active Walk-and-talk sessions are also available for those who prefer a more active therapeutic environment.
I am a member of the American Counseling Association (ACA), the Association for Multicultural Counseling & Development (AMCD), the International Association for Resilience & Trauma
