Welcome! I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor dedicated to helping individuals lead more fulfilled, balanced and emotionally healthy lives. Whether you're struggling to stay focused, manage time, calm racing thoughts or simply just looking for guidance on how to cope with life's ups and downs, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with children, teens, young adults and families who are ready to better understand themselves, build on their strengths, and find new ways to thrive. Therapy is your space to slow down, breathe, and begin untangling what feels impossible to manage alone.
My approach is collaborative, strength-based, and person-centered—meaning I meet you where you are and focus on what’s working, not just what’s not. Using evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we’ll work together to uncover patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and develop practical tools for daily life.
I offer a free 15 minute consultation so we can connect and see if we align. Therapy isn’t just about symptom relief—it can be a path to deeper self-awareness, peace, and transformation.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
