Connection matters; we weren't meant to go through life's hurts and challenges alone. Oftentimes we get this connection through friends and family, but sometimes we need more than that.

My heart is to create a space to feel heard, understood, and to gain hope as we walk through those stuck points together.

What does it mean to become your authentic self? Know that you are wise and throughout the counseling experience you will discover this truth and learn to trust yourself.

I would be honored to hold space as you take steps in your journey towards growth and healing. This may look like a few sessions, a few weeks, a few months, or longer; just know that I'm here every step of the way!
