Well done for taking this first step towards being your best self. It is normal to feel apprehensive about reaching out for help. It is my aim to reduce the barriers to counseling with flexible availability and approaches that work for you! I believe in meeting people where they are at and providing them with an enriching experience that equips them to meet their goals. With over 25 years of experience as a social worker, including extensive international work, I have worked with a large range of clients across the lifespan, with a broad range of needs, desires, and wants. My practice style is relational, strength-based, and individualized. In counseling you can expect professional, empathetic, and targeted support to facilitate the changes you want to achieve. I believe strongly in helping people to leverage their strengths, build resilience, and heal from grief and loss, trauma, and other adversities that they have experienced. I am passionate about giving back to the community. Therefore, I have volunteered in many capacities through-out my career. Currently I am a volunteer assistant swim coach for a local university, where I support athletes to find their feet, navigate the demands of college life, and develop important life skills. I have extensive experience working with young adults as they make important life transitions and forge their unique life paths. As part of my practice I also work with adults with relationship concerns, career challenges, anxiety, and depression. At the core of my work is a belief in the power of transformation through connections, empowerment, and healing. My personal and professional philosophy is that what binds us all together are some common needs, desires, and wants. People want to have a voice and to be heard. We are wired for connections and relationships. Fundamentally we want and need to feel that we belong and have a place in this world. We all have our fears, doubts, and unique experiences that shape our sense of self, choices, and world view. We all have mountains to climb, barriers to overcome, and pains to bear and heal. The idea of counseling is to gain the support and tools you need when you need it most. I look forward to meeting you, learning about you, and helping you during your life journey.

As Brene Brown states "Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen". I believe reaching out for counseling support takes courage as it leads us out of our comfort zone. Finding a supportive counselor is important and I base my practice on being a supportive and non judgmental partner to help you navigate your way through a difficult time. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been working in the counseling field for over 25 years. My goal is to partner with you to provide timely counseling support for the current challenges you are experiencing. My practice is based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) using Acceptace and Commitment Theory (ACT) to help clients make steps toward a meaningful life. I incorporate Solution Focued Therapy and Mindfulness Skills into my work to help clients resolve issues effieciently and gain skills to use on a daily basis. I work within a Trauma Informed framework. Often times making one or two small changes can free a person up to move toward the life they want to live. I wholeheartedly believe in the process of change and my work with clients continues to teach me about the resiliency of the human mind and the ability to move toward a meaningful life by increasing one's psychological flexibility. I love the work I do!
