As a licensed mental health counselor, my practice focuses on helping children and young
adults
thrive both within the home and outside.
My practice is currently full! Parents and children have been having disagreements since the beginning of time. It can be hard to understand what a child is going through, especially when you feel you’ve done everything you possibly can to make things better. The loss of control coupled with feelings ranging from hopelessness to anger can lead to strained and fractured family dynamics.

I feel strongly that people have within them the power to heal and grow. This often needs some support and guidance but people have these strengths with in them. Faith can be an important part of healing for some and not for others. I incorporate this into the counseling setting as much or as little as the client desires. Whether healing from trauma, loss, or relationship issues, I believe that there are different treatment modalities that can work to heal these issues. There is joy and peace for everyone once these issues have been resolved. I encourage everyone to get back to the freedom in life they were intense to have.

I have extensive experience with
adults
, children, adolescents, and families and have enjoyed seeing so many people evolve into self-assured individuals.
Change is good, but change is also hard! In my experience, therapy is about working with individuals to help them reach their life goals, despite obstacles and maximize their potential. Despite the hard work involved, my mission is for therapy to be a positive experience. Simply stated, it should be a collaborative effort based on problem solving, support and the exchange of ideas. Additionally, treatment needs to be developed in the context of a person's life experiences and history. My hope is as treatment progresses individuals can move forward with what they have learned to independently facilitate future change.
