I am a Licensed Resident in Counseling with 7 years of experience. I work with young adults and adults to manage issues like depression, anxiety, ADHD, stress, life transitions, emotional dysregulation, and self-esteem. I focus on improving clients' self-worth by challenging negative core beliefs and collaboratively understanding how other contributing factors impact their behaviors and intrapersonal relationships. I emphasize that the progress made outside sessions is just as vital as the work done during them, empowering clients to take control of their healing journey.
I received my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health from Regent University. I use treatment approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, internal family systems, reality therapy, motivational interviewing, and Christian counseling.
I believe in celebrating daily victories as important steps toward achieving larger life goals. Seeking therapy can be tough but also the start of a transformative journey worth the time and effort. I look forward to meeting you!
