During challenging times in my own life, I experienced the power of having someone who truly listened without judgement; someone who offered support, compassion, & guidance when I needed it most. Those experiences inspired me to pursue a career in counseling so that I could offer the same kind of care and understanding to others. I learned that healing doesn't happen isolation; it happens through connection, empathy, and the courage to face one's story. My own path taught me that every person has the strength within them to grow and change, even in the midst of pain, and I am honored to walk alongside clients in their own journey.
I believe that healing involves the whole person, mind, body, and spirit, which is why my counseling approach is holistic in nature. I view each client as a unique individual whose emotional well-being is interconnected with their physical health, relationships, environment, and sense of purpose.
As a counselor, I strive to create a space that is safe, affirming, and collaborative, where clients can explore their emotions, uncover patterns, and move toward greater self-awareness and resilience. My personal experiences help me approach my work with authenticity, humility, and deep respect for each individual's unique journey.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and then decide together the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we will look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
