I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I have worked with individuals in the mental health field for 10 years. With life come trials and tribulations! This journey is about progress, not perfection, everyone is capable of change. When people experience trauma or severe life stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. I seek to humanize mental health struggles and encourage therapy to everyone as the path to normalizing and living a healthy, active, fulfilling life. I am dedicated to working with individuals who have symptoms of anxiety, depression, managing their anger, and trauma-related issues. I help individuals identify the root of the underlying pain, fear, insecurity, and lack of motivation.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I strive to encourage you to be your best self, by gently challenging you, helping you get unstuck, and creating room for us to pinpoint your growth areas. My interaction with you will always be packaged with respect, compassion, understanding, flexibility, and appropriate humor.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My goal is to create a welcoming, inviting, and trusting environment where you can feel safe enough to start working on creating the life you dreamed of having and to develop the skills necessary for personal growth. My ideal client is vulnerable, yet strong and knowledgeable, yet willing to listen.
