No matter what life brings, YOU are worthy, YOU matter, and YOU can find healing as I commit to offer support, unconditional compassion, and a relentless desire to meet you where you are in life. I consider it an honor to work with children, tweens/teens, families, and adults seeking help and comfort during challenging situations. I aim to equip and encourage parents who are seeking tools and resources to regain confidence in parenting, healthy communication, and secure attachment with their children. Divorce, adoption, anxiety, depression, trauma, life adjustments and emotion regulation are a few of the issues that I typically see.

I believe life needs to be fully experienced and enjoyed! Too often, the stresses and traumas of life prevent us from stepping into a full life. My goal is to create a welcoming environment where you can feel safe enough to start working on creating the life you dreamed of having and to develop the skills necessary for personal growth. Prior to becoming a counselor, I worked as as a Qualified Professional with individuals with developmental delays over a decade. I enjoyed assisting individuals with specific behavioral and life skill needs. I enjoy spending time with my son, riding horses and gardening.
