I have over 16 years of experience providing mental health services to individuals and families with mental health, behavioral, and substance abuse disorders and over 3 years providing counseling as a license professional counsel.
When facing an overwhelming emotional experience, so many people feel lost, isolated and alone. Therapy, first and foremost, is a way to relieve that sense of aloneness and form a trusting, collaborative relationship with someone who accepts you just as you are. I strive to enhance my client’s quality of life aged 12 and older by utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy and a solution-focused approach.

It is much harder for us to show kindness and compassion than it is to judge ourselves because we are not strong enough to push through everything with a smile. I hope to assist you with learning how to extend the kindness you give to others to yourself. I have experience with individuals across the lifespan experiencing significant emotional distress and with those struggling with transitioning between stages of life. I focus on ambiguous grief to assist anyone struggling to identify and establish the role they want to have in their own lives and create sustainable change.
