My professional experience has prepared me to work with clients from various backgrounds. I enjoy walking beside each client on their journey to personal growth with empathy and compassion. Clients are able to identify and process emotions, find resolution, and regain control to live a rewarding and productive life. I provide a safe space for self expression. You will experience a confidential, non-judgmental environment where you are heard, understood, and appreciated. I am committed to helping you increase your self-understanding and quality of life.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has over 17 years working in the mental health field. I have extensive experience in treating issues such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, self-esteem, stress, and anger management. I am passionate about working with individuals who are on a journey to improve their quality of life and overall well-being.
