Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, inhibited by fear, or consumed with self-criticism? Are past experiences making it difficult to find happiness and genuine connection with others in the present? Or maybe what brings you to this site is a concern with your child’s functioning, and his/her ability to manage emotions and behaviors in a manner that is healthy and adaptive. If you find yourself nodding along, you’re in the right place. There is much value to be gained in taking the time to invest in oneself. YOU, are worth it!
I am a licensed mental health counselor who has been providing compassionate and evidence-based care for my clients since 2014. I strive to create a therapeutic space for my clients that is warm, collaborative, and encouraging of one’s journey towards personal growth and healing.
I consider it a privilege to work with my clients to gain understanding of past and current contributing factors influencing distress, navigate and problem solve barriers interfering with desired change, and ultimately experience personal growth and healing. I welcome the opportunity to get to know and invest in you.
