About me
I am an experienced Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who is dedicated to helping adults create meaningful change in their lives where it is needed when experiencing mental health issues, relationship conflict, and life adjustments.
I believe meaningful change happens when people feel safe enough to be fully themselves without judgment. Using a client-centered approach & evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT, ACT, and others. I work with adults to better understand their thoughts, emotions, & patterns while building healthier ways to cope & reconnect with themselves. Therapy is not about "fixing" who you are - it is about creating space to better understand yourself, strengthen your ability to cope, & move through life with greater clarity & confidence.
My areas of focus include mental health, life adjustments, and trauma-informed care. I work effectively with motivated clients who are engaged in the therapeutic process. Many of my clients are navigating significant shifts in their lives, often accompanied by co-occurring mental health concerns.
As your Therapist, I can offer you a place of steadiness, warmth, & genuine human connection during difficult seasons of life whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, chronic stress, life transitions, relationship - communication concerns, trauma - recovery, emotional overwhelm, or grief & loss.
