I enjoy working with adults who are looking for an upbeat, positive, and encouraging counselor. This is your journey, and it would be an honor to walk alongside you to help you through the rough parts. Counseling doesn't have to be stereotypical, but can help you improve your healing process and even help you be successful in your healing process. Sometimes, it isn't even about healing, but it might be about making sense of the complications and problems you may be facing in today's world. No matter the situation, it is easier to conquer things with someone than alone.

When people face personal problems or internal conflict, they benefit from taking time to talk with an experienced psychologist. It is an opportunity to talk confidentially with someone, outside of your family and friends, who is trained in mental health diagnostics and problem solving. Usually self esteem regulation, anger, anxiety, unhappiness, family conflict or maladaptive coping with substance misuse bring people for help. The purpose of counseling is to resolve conflict and go forward facing life's challenges with more strength and maturity.

Do you feel like you're just existing in life? Have you lost your sense of self or identity? Are you satisfied with your intimate/romantic relationship?

Therapy with me can help you reclaim your confidence, improve your self-esteem, and foster a meaningful relationship without compromising your daily activities.

The journey of life comes with many twists and turns that can sometimes leave us in places where we feel insecure about who we are and where we are going. It is at these moments that we must acknowledge that help is needed. I believe my role as a counselor is to create the environment and provide the tools to help you grow and build a compassionate relationship with your inner self.

You might be feeling anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in self-doubt, or worn down by relationship patterns that keep repeating. Maybe you’ve been through difficult life transitions or carry the weight of past experiences that still shape how you see yourself. Deep down, you want to feel more grounded, more in control of your emotions, and more connected to a life that feels purposeful and fulfilling. You're looking for a space where you don’t have to hold it all together—and where your strengths are just as valued as your struggles.

No problem is too big or too small to find a solution. I acknowledge the strength and courage it takes to reach out for help and work collaboratively with you to achieve your goals. I have a strength-based approach to therapy and believe the therapeutic relationship creates a safe place to promote growth, change, and healing. Talking through experiences allows us to grasp how thoughts and behaviors can both help and harm us. Often we resort to old behaviors or thoughts that worked for us at some point but now are causing us difficulty in our present lives.

Seasons change and so do we. Life transitions are rarely easy, and change is inevitable. Maybe you find yourself struggling with making decisions needed to move forward and live life to your full potential or maybe you experience anxiety and depression and/or fear that cause you to feel stuck. Having non-judgmental support from a counselor can help make life transitions a little more bearable and foster growth and empowerment.

I believe therapy is an investment in your own life; a courageous risk to find healing, peace, hope and joy. Because we cannot change the past or predict the future, nor can we remove uncertainty, change or pain from the human experience, my goal is to help you discover ways to respond to whatever life places in front of you. I do so in a non-judgmental, collaborative way that focuses on building skills and self-compassion.
