In an ever-evolving world, change is inevitable, whether we are prepared for it or not. Our minds often wrestle with the persistent echoes of past emotional wounds and the uncertainties of the future. Finding someone who truly comprehends our emotions or whom we can confide in with our innermost thoughts and feelings can be a daunting task. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I am passionate about guiding individuals on their journey towards holistic well-being. With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I strive to create a safe and nurturing space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
Drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities, including CBT, DBT, mindfulness-based interventions, & EMDR, I tailor each session to meet the unique needs and goals of my clients. By fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship, I aim to empower individuals to navigate life's challenges, cultivate resilience, and unlock their potential.
With a background in counseling and a commitment to ongoing professional development, I am dedicated to staying abreast of the latest research and best practices in the field of mental health. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship issues, I am here to provide compassionate guidance and support every step of the way.

I provide a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings. I believe that individuals are trying to cope the best they can with the skills they have, so I don't judge their efforts; instead, I help my clients notice their methods are not working, and we need to work on changing those patterns.
