I'm a dedicated therapist passionate about helping clients navigate their mental health journeys. My background as a teacher has equipped me with a deep understanding of diverse learning styles and effective communication techniques, which I use to create meaningful connections with those I work with. I have extensive experience supporting individuals facing substance abuse challenges, survivors of intimate partner violence, and those looking to manage anger and emotions. My work with the certified Family Peace Initiative has strengthened my dedication to helping those affected by domestic violence.

Given the chaos that seems to surround us 24/7, I can understand why so many of us are struggling with fear, regret, anger, and resentment. I also believe that even if we feel like we’re stuck repeating the same painful patterns or behaviors, it’s possible to change, it’s possible to resolve past hurt, it’s possible to enjoy life again.

Treatment for my clients are as unique as they are. Two people can enter therapy for the same obstacles such as work, relationships, self-worth, unattained goals, and the list goes on. Each client can choose to approach them in drastically different ways. For example, if negative thoughts eventually lead to regrettable actions, one person may elect to use evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). While the other may opt for Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique.

We all have what it takes to become the person we want to be in life, sometimes we just need a little help accessing those parts of ourselves. I love working with clients in a partnership to develop the tools that will best help them achieve their goals in a judgment-free environment. I work primarily from a Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) model, but I believe there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health counseling. I prefer to use an eclectic approach tailored to the client's individual needs.

When I decided to get into counseling, I realized that we all have a multitude of DYNAMICS which can benefit or create challenges in our lives. Counseling has its own set of DYNAMICS and I plan to help you be aware of the positive benefits counseling can have in your everyday life. I enjoy the journey in promoting a quality of life for everyone that has meaning and purpose. Being DYNAMIC is simply being in constant change, activity or progress. We are DYNAMIC, and I look forward to meeting with you.
