Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle." Napoleon Hill. Every journey of life has highs and lows. The fluctuation of those experiences are what mold us into the people we are meant to become. Although we are each on our own journey, life isn't meant to be traveled alone. Having others around us for guidance and companionship is a natural need. Therapy provides a safe, nonjudgmental environment to foster those relationships and to work on self.

With that being said, "Out of all of my credentials as a therapist, my most significant is that I'm a card carrying member of the human race" (Lori Gottlieb).

The truth is, life is made up of dark times, which can cause us to feel alone and afraid. At times, there is no one for us to talk to, or we simply do not feel safe sharing some experiences with others. Other times we may feel unheard, unprioritized and or even dismissed by the very ones we love. Moreover, life can be overwhelming and the only solution, we can think of is throwing in the towel. I am here to help.

At Alliance Counseling, I aim to help children thrive at their highest potential.

I value and respect the expertise that each parent or caregiver has of their child. Treatment takes a collaborative approach, combining the knowledge and experience of families with my clinical expertise as an ADHD Certified Clinical Service Provider.
