I have been a practicing Clinical Counselor for over 15 years. As a counselor, I have sought to help others reach their full potential, utilizing their strengths and internal motivation to conquer their struggles.

We all have a story. It is a story we have been telling our whole lives. We add to this story with each new encounter and context. Sometimes our stories get warped by any number of life factors, and we can lose our sense of self. I see therapy as an opportunity to unravel and examine the story of you, to get to the “why” of you.

Some seasons of life are joyful such as the anticipation of a graduation, getting married or welcoming a new baby. Other times we find ourselves in a season of adversity and become overwhelmed by our circumstances. Profound disappointment sets in and we grieve our lost dreams and unmet expectations. During these more difficult seasons, we may develop negative beliefs about ourselves or the world around us that cause further suffering. It is my desire as a counselor to provide a compassionate space where one can wrestle with these negative beliefs and begin to see life through a more hopeful lens.

Life can be joyous and happy but it can also be unpredictable.

You are not alone and with time and mental health treatment things can get better.
