As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my journey into the field of mental health has been personal and shaped by my belief in the inherent worth and potential of individuals. I am passionate about creating a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic environment where my clients feel truly heard and valued. Rooted in person-centered therapy, I understand that each person’s experience is unique, and my role is not to impose solutions but to walk alongside them as they discover their own path toward healing and growth. For me, counseling is not about being the expert, rather being an active and supportive presence in my clients' lives.

Life is full of changes and uncertainty, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when things don’t go the way we expected. You may find yourself feeling stuck—especially when the harder you try to fix things, the more frustrated or helpless it feels. You are not alone, and certainly not broken. Often, these experiences reflect patterns shaped by our past experiences, relationships, and the expectations we’ve carried over times. In therapy, we'll work together to understand and gradually shift these patterns, reconnecting with your inner strengths and rebuilding confidence in navigating life’s ups and downs.

You’ve worked hard to get where you are, but life still feels heavy. You value working on your own terms, but managing all the moving parts (work, relationships, self-care, etc) often feels overwhelming, leaving you drained and anxious. If you’re navigating life as neurodivergent without fully understanding your unique way of thinking or experiencing the world, meeting expectations can be exhausting. You want to live authentically, but it’s hard to know what that looks like. I see you. Together, we’ll explore how to let go of the pressures you’ve carried and make space for your true self to show up, without apology.
