I am an experienced licensed professional counselor who is dedicated to helping adults and adolescents cope with mental health issues.
I have a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling and more than 25 years experience working with ages 12 and up. I believe a counselor’s job is to create a safe space in which the counselor can assist the client in exploring their inner life and outer situations. People come to see me when they are stressed out, overwhelmed and in pain. When they are finished with counseling I want them to feel better and be able to face life confidently. I also have experience counseling people with substance abuse issues. I work with families and couples who are experiencing relationship difficulties. I believe clients should be empowered to utilize their inner strength and resilience.
