I bring nearly a decade of clinical experience working with a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, pornography addiction, and autism spectrum disorders. Throughout my career, I have supported clients facing a variety of psychological challenges, helping them navigate their unique experiences with compassion, clarity, and evidence-based care. Upon client request, I also offer faith-based, pastoral counseling from a Catholic perspective. I am dedicated to respecting my client's values and belief systems throughout the counseling process.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavior Modification, and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). These structured, goal-oriented methods allow me to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while developing practical strategies for lasting change.
Whether I’m working with individuals, couples, or families, my focus remains on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel empowered to grow and thrive.
