Come as you are. I have many years of experience working with people and have seen people travel from brokenness to restoration. This isn't the end of your story.

I value the opportunity to create an environment where you can breathe, connect with safety in mind and body, and engage in a therapeutic relationship as you journey toward greater self-discovery and freedom.

I practice a predominantly humanistic approach in which you receive unconditional, positive regard. In other words, regardless of what you say, you will be accepted and supported and treated with value. Your healing, progress and strive will be the forefront of our work. Counseling requires work and courage to make healthy changes. I will be honored to work along with you. Let's be courageous together.
