Do you feel weighed down by the heaviness of different struggles, unable to experience joy, purpose, and peace from one day to the next? Do you see yourself making choices, entertaining thoughts, or habitually falling into behaviors, which do not match up with your values, beliefs, and hopes? Some seasons of life knock at our doors, introducing or reacquainting us with sources of pain that can leave us overwhelmed about navigating through unpleasant symptoms. The support that one receives from an uplifting counselor can aid with renewed vision for piloting through such seasons towards healing.
As a counselor, compassion, genuineness, and acceptance define my approach in providing a safe space. I care about seeing the best in each person, as I listen to stories through the lens of empathy and prioritize building solid alliances centered on teamwork. I aspire to offer challenges, characterized by hope wherever you might find yourself.
Whether reaching out to a counselor remains a first or holds some familiarity, the act itself shows courage. I deeply respect the vulnerability, along with strength that goes along with advocating for your desires and that the first step can feel intimidating. I look forward to getting to know you and walking with you on your trek to healing and freedom.

I often use ACT, CBT, and DBT therapy in working with clients. In the first session, we'll discuss the concerns that brought you into therapy and decide the most appropriate methods to support progress. With a blend of ACT, CBT, and DBT, we'll look at developing methods to cope with negative emotions and how to build up resiliency in relationships. I also use ART to aid clients, who feel stuck.
