Have you considered therapy for yourself or your child and did not know where to begin? Have you been wanting a space to be your most authentic, “human” self? Whether you have noticed changes in yourself or a loved one, asking for help can be difficult. Let me be the start of your therapeutic journey! My passion is to give my clients a non-judgmental space to find and express their most authentic selves by giving you the tools to cope with life’s darkest moments and maintain those coping skills throughout. I have worked with individuals who experience anxiety, depression, gender and sexual questioning, trauma, and low self-esteem.

I have been passionate about helping children, adults, and families since I was an adolescent. During therapy, I accept you for who you are and I appreciate and understand that everyone is unique. I provide an empathetic, understanding, and honest voice to soothe and support you through our therapy sessions. While I am working with you, I become inspired by seeing you break through barriers and grow within your progress by achieving the goals you set for yourself. It is a privilege and honor to come alongside you, as you navigate the uncertainty and pain that often comes as a result of individual lived experiences.

I've practiced in mental health for more than 15 years and I still have the same passion I did when I started. I trust that part of the reason that I remain committed to this work is because I practice what I preach. I constantly have to remind myself that I can do hard things and I wake up every day manifesting my purpose. The most rewarding part of my job is watching you grow into the person you've set out to be. I pride myself on true social work values; which include integrity, ethical practices, and quality services. I have specialized certification and training in trauma and a long work history in family systems therapy.

I strongly believe you should feel comfortable with the therapist you choose and should have a positive therapeutic relationship. I believe that each and every individual is capable of self-direction and growth. In counseling, I strive for a therapeutic relationship with each client that is facilitative to those ends. During sessions, I strive to maintain an environment containing unconditional positive regard, empathy, and genuineness. My therapeutic style is primarily based on an eclectic style, however, I am a Christian therapist but will never push my beliefs on to you. I graduated with a M.A. in professional counseling.

Depression, anxiety, or trauma can stop you from enjoying your day-to-day life! It is not easy dealing with all the thoughts and emotions that are always stirred up. My hope is that together we can work to find balance and peace in your life. We cannot change the past but we can change how we think, cope and manage it today! Many struggle alone unable to truly move forward and find that freedom of internal happiness. Give me a call and together we can find your happy place!

Hi, My practice is focused on teen girls, and emerging adults/ aging adults who are learning to navigate the transitions of life. With a background in CBT and EMDR training most clients come with a variety of concerns related to trauma, anxiety and depression. I often incorporate super heroes, Star Wars and current events in sessions to create an environment where clients are able to identify feelings and improve relationships without feeling awkward or embarrassed.

Working with a therapist can help children and teens learn how to handle past, present, and future challenges. Everyone is unique, so the techniques I use with individuals may differ, but one thing remains true: everyone has the ability within themselves for a great potential for change and growth. However, some challenges in life can cause this ability to be hindered. As a therapist, my job is to facilitate growth by meeting the child or teen where they are at and letting them know they are seen and heard.

I enjoy working with children and adults.I have twenty years of experience in the mental health field. I know it's difficult to make that decision to ask for help.My job is to put you at ease, really listen, and help you find a way to move forward, whether that means resolving an issue from the past; changing a behavior or creating a plan for the future. My goal is to improve your quality of life. What's most important is the what happens outside therapy. The best client is ready and willing to make that change.

NOT accepting new clients - Counseling is a collaborative process where I strive to create a safe and open environment for you to share your experiences. Areas that can be addressed through counseling include, but are not limited to grief and loss, depression, anxiety, traumatic experiences, life transitions, interpersonal conflicts, and problems with self-confidence. As we work together through the therapeutic process, we create and work toward goals that you want to achieve. We will adjust these goals to ensure that your needs are met quickly, so that you can get back to the best version of yourself.

NEW CLIENTS WELCOME Are you depressed, worry excessively, feel nervous, get anxious or wish others understood you? Are you stressed out, need balance, or feel invisible or overwhelmed? Perhaps you stay frustrated and confused, feel lonely, or just need someone to listen without judgement. If this describes you I can help. It's NOT too late! I can help you live your best life now.

It is my belief that within each of us, the mind, body, and spirit work in unison to maintain a sense of balance and wellness. However, there are times when we may encounter challenges and unanticipated events that may cause a disturbance in these areas, which may be evidenced by undesirable thoughts, feelings or behaviors. I have the required training, licensure and experience to practice individual, group, and marriage/family counseling with all age groups encompassing a general range of presenting problems/concerns.

I am happy to be able to provide family and individual therapy for all ages. I have a passion for working with people who acknowledge the imperfections that make us human and are open to discovering truth and working towards positive change. I have worked with clients on issues such as anxiety, depression/mood disorders, ADHD, various forms of abuse, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, anger management, social skills, grief, marital relationships and parenting skills. I look forward to working with clients to help them find the health, healing, and truth that awaits.

Anxiety can make you feel stuck, but there is hope that you can feel better. We all experience stressors that show up in our life in different ways including: anxiety, depression, anger, fear, unhappiness, unfulfilling relationships, conflict, or emotional pain. My passion is working with individuals to better manage their anxiety, fears and anger. How different would life be if you were able to learn new ways to work with your anxiety instead of trying to "eliminate" anxious thoughts and feelings completely? You can learn and apply practical strategies that help you tolerate the ups and downs of life.
