Let's face it, life can be stressful. That stress can become even more pronounced as you navigate new transitions like becoming an adult, moving to a new city, starting a new job, or leaving a relationship.

Working and trying to manage day-to-day responsibilities is no simple task. This is why I a firm believer in therapy.

Working as a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in helping people cope with their issues. I guide my clients in a way that utilizes both their heads and their hearts.

Have you found yourself lost, confused, or alone? I am here to serve you. I would love to help you experience well-being and improve your mental health. Sometimes life can turn dark and complex. I have dedicated 12 years to helping children, adolescents, and adults to reach wellness after experiencing trauma, grief, or suffering mental illness. It is possible to recover. There is hope.

Are you feeling stuck, frustrated, alone, empty, vulnerable in desperation to find balance and joy? Are your worries/concerns taking control of your life? I’ve had the honor to work with people dealing with challenging life situations either related to medical conditions, family, relationship issues or past traumas that continue to affect their daily lives. These can affect your emotional balance, feeling lack of trust, shame and resentment.

Relationship difficulties do not define a relationship. Mental health challenges do not define an individual. They are natural human trials to be experienced. I have over a decade of knowledge as a research investigator in psychology to assist in your counseling journey through experiences. I approach the human condition as if we contain natural resources, yet to be mined, to achieve full potential in life and relationships. There’s optimism in human nature and it contains hope to aspire towards greater self-understanding. Once a person becomes more self-aware of his/her behavior, it’s possible to change or adapt for the better.

Your child has been sexually abused and your world has been turned upside down. You are angry. Horrified. And feeling betrayed. You're trying to manage your feelings while supporting your child and it's leaving you feeling overwhelmed. Your child won’t talk to you about it and they're struggling. You are desperate for help for your child. Or you may be an adult who’s experienced childhood sexual abuse and blame yourself for all the things that happened to you that you couldn’t control. You’ve spent years blocking it out, pushing it down, trying not to think about it or talk about it. But you can only avoid it for so long.
