About me

Discovering our truth can be difficult and a challenge. At times, we just need some additional support to help us get through daily challenges. Take a moment and think about what you can do to take more control of your situation. By reading this and thinking about what you can do; you have already taken the first step in discovering your truth. My experience as a counselor includes providing services to a diverse population, from children to adults with a range of diagnoses. I have a background in working with individuals who have challenges with depression, anxiety, anger, and grief.
I am currently providing the following services: individual therapy, and family therapy. I use an eclectic approach which includes brainspotting (focused mindfulness), positive psychology, forward facing trauma therapy, play therapy, and art therapy. I also enjoy taking components of geek culture and incorporating them into your journey of healing!

If you are ready to take the next step and explore how to discover your truth, please make an appointment. Let’s explore and discover your truth, together... “You were born with wings why prefer to crawl through life?” – Rumi
