There’s nothing more frustrating than searching for a remedy to cure our mental health issues, and coming up empty. I myself have struggled with reducing my own negative thoughts and behaviors. It was only when I created a vulnerable space to grow in that I started to improve. That same environment is what I strive to create for my clients. Feeling comfortable enough to be honest with me and yourself will be the key to building our rapport and getting you a step closer to your goals.

As a Professional Counselor, I take great pride in creating a space that is non-judgmental, empathetic, and respectful to my clients. A few techniques that can be expected in therapy with me are: person-centered therapy (meaning that we work together to reach your goals), psycho-education (education about mental health), and cognitive therapy (reducing negative thought patterns and perceptions). We will work as a team to get you to a place that you can feel comfortable in, all the while learning more about yourself and how to better your life.

Knowing when it’s time to reach out and ask for help can be difficult to determine. Everyone has their limits for what they can handle in life and, sometimes, you don’t know your own limit until you’ve hit it and are in need of healing. If you’ve made it to this website, you’ve already made the biggest steps to start your healing journey.

As a genuine, empathetic, and caring individual, my true passion is to help others and connect with people in a way that will help them reach their goals and overcome their struggles. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, meaning that I work collaboratively with clients to help them improve the quality of their lives.

For the past 7 years, my time has been spent working as a therapist primarily in the area of substance abuse treatment. I have experience treating adults and adolescents who are dealing with many mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and low self-esteem. I received my Master’s degree for Mental Health Counseling in 2015 and earned my certification for substance abuse treatment (CAADC) in the hopes that I can be of service to others and help them through their crises by offering an open and non-judgmental space for recovery.
