As a counselor, I believe everyone has strengths and can learn to see their human worth. I believe counseling is a process to help you address your concerns, come to a greater understanding of yourself, learn effective personal/interpersonal coping strategies, and develop balance in life. Often, we are not taught how to manage difficult emotions and heal from life events. I hope to develop a relationship with you to offer guidance and support to you along your journey of self-awareness, self-compassion, developing balance, healing, and living a more fulfilling life. I tend to take a strength based and person-centered approach.

I believe we all have inner strengths, innate self-worth, and intuition that guides us. Through the ebbs and flows of life, it's common to feel disconnected from our authentic selves. This disconnect can manifest as feelings of being stuck, overwhelmed, emotionally shutdown, or running on autopilot. We may experience burnout, self-doubt, and a sense of dissatisfaction with life. I take a holistic approach to therapy focusing on mind & body aspects to help you restore a sense of harmony, connection, and safety to live a more full and satisfying life.

I am providing sessions in-person to children, adolescents and teens, with play therapy, art, games and sand tray interventions.
Life can be overwhelming and emotional when children and adolescents are struggling with mental health concerns and challenges.

Individuals need to feel safe, secure, feel valued and have a sense of belonging to fully participate in their lives. Treatment options should focus on their developmental stage, strengths and values. Building self-esteem, confidence and self image is the first step to healing.

People enter into a counseling relationship when nothing else seems to be working. Although most people soon make comments such as, “(Counseling) was a lot better than I thought it would be”, few people seek counseling as a first option. More often we seek out techniques that either help us to temporarily avoid (e.g., media, social networking) our anxiety, or we seek temporary shots of pleasure (e.g., alcohol, food, pornography) that make us feel good for a short time. Soon enough we realize that all of these things leave us feeling more hollow and lonely, and that is when we start thinking about counseling.
