Accepting new clients for telehealth with flexible scheduling. Reach out to schedule a free 15‑minute consultation. Hi! I’m Misty, a Licensed Professional Counselor. I’m here to support adolescents, teens, young adults, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity. My style is warm, collaborative, and respectful. I believe healing grows from a safe, supportive relationship—and everyone can learn and thrive with the right tools and space. If you’re curious about working together, I’d love to connect.
My professional background is unique: I've worked in both in private practice and in the field of child welfare, which has given me deep insight into family systems, stress, trauma and the ways people learn to cope. This range of experience allows me to meet clients where thy are and offer tailored support that feels both practical and empowering
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, and asking for help isn't always easy. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. Together, we'll move at a pace that feels right for you, building the tools, insight, and confidence needed to create meaningful, lasting change. When you are ready.....I invite you to reach out.
