I enjoy working with a variety of individuals and a wide range of concerns and issues. I have experience working primarily with adults in multiple settings including university counseling centers and private practice. It's important that you feel there is a trusting, cooperative relationship where we can create hope for a better future, find purpose for your life, and work together to reach your goals. We will work collaboratively to empower you to create meaningful change in your life through encouragement, support, and understanding your concerns and perspective. Clients find me to be personable, honest, and compassionate.
My clinical work incorporates multiple treatment approaches (developmental, interpersonal, multicultural, emotion-focused, and person-centered). Most importantly, I try to explore and understand someone’s experience by setting collaborative goals to create change. You'll find therapy with me to be supportive, non-judgmental, and strengths-based.
Regardless of what you are dealing with, reaching out takes courage and I am glad you are seeking help to improve yourself and your situation. When you are ready to take that next step, please give me the opportunity to help you. I wish you all the best in creating change to be happy and live your best life.
