About me
Hello! I am the Founder of and Director of Counseling at AmWell Group PLLC; a group practice aiming to provide inclusive mental health counseling and supportive services.
At AmWell Group PLLC, we are dedicated to offering you inclusive, compassionate, and supportive care tailored to your unique needs. I oversee our team of licensed and pre-licensed professionals who are here to help you navigate life’s challenges, providing a range of mental health services to support your growth and goals.
We prioritize creating a welcoming environment where you can feel supported and respected, regardless of your race, gender, sexual orientation, or background. Our approach is unconditional, non-judgmental, and designed to meet you where you are, offering the high-quality care you deserve. At AmWell Group, we understand that how you move forward is not limited by your past.
We provide individual and family services and work with adults, adolescents, and children. In addition to general mental health care, we provide expert forensic mental health services and are specially trained to coordinate care with legal professionals to offer compassionate, court-ordered mental health support.
At AmWell Group, we believe that the therapeutic relationship should be one of authenticity, collaboration, and one that feels empowering and supportive; while keeping careful consideration of cultural concerns. We view participants in therapy as the experts in their lives and cater our therapeutic approaches to each individual's needs, promoting autonomy.
