I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or psychosis. Some clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to manage symptoms affecting their lives. Others may be functioning well outwardly while struggling privately. Together, we work to understand patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and develop practical ways to respond differently.

If you or someone you love are having problems related to alcohol or drug use, there is hope and a way out. It is most useful to meet with someone who truly understands addiction and can provide a true assessment. I will work with you, your family and any other healthcare providers to develop a plan of action based on your needs. Often times the road to recovery starts with meeting someone who listens to understand, meets you with genuine care and concern and can provide useful recommendations. Chemical dependency is a primary illness not a secondary mental health issue; trust a counselor who entered this specialty field.

Renew your mind. Transform your life.
Imagine carrying the weight of unspoken stress, past wounds, or roles that never gave you space to pause and breathe. Maybe you’re an everyday person showing up for others but feeling unseen yourself—a man who's always had to “be strong,” an elder navigating life transitions, a faith-filled woman wrestling with doubt or disappointment, or someone simply tired of just getting by. You want peace in your mind, healing in your relationships, and clarity about who you are and where you’re going. You’re not asking for perfect—you’re asking to feel whole, seen, and equipped to move forward.

As a therapist, I pride myself on meeting the client where they’re at by listening and allowing them to be exactly who they are. I offer a safe space to share as much or as little as the client is comfortable sharing. Validating and normalizing their experiences while also challenging them to work towards change. Helping a client realize they can do hard things and have the capacity to overcome sometimes overwhelming odds is one of the joys of being a therapist.
