I have worked as an LPC for 19 years in a school setting and in private practice. I work with pre-teens, teens, parents, adults, and families and I am LGBTQIA+ affirming. I am committed to helping those who are struggling with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, self-harm, lack of motivation, life transitions, and other related challenges. I love to help clients find the best way to meet their own personal goals in a way that works best for them as an individual. I have experience working with several diagnoses including General and Social Anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Depression, and Autism (primarily level 1).
I use a variety of counseling techniques and theories to help tailor a therapeutic experience that is individual to you and meets your needs. You are an expert on you. I am here as a fellow traveler. I do have training and experience with CBT, Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, Positive Psychology, IFS, and Trauma and use concepts from each of these in therapy.
Please feel free to reach out to me in whatever way works best for you. You can call me, text me, email me, or visit the client portal on my website. I have availability times posted, but I don't want you to feel trapped by those. I'll try to be flexible to your scheduling needs as best I can.
