I have embraced a lifelong commitment to serving my community by providing emotional and behavioral health support. In a world that’s constantly changing I have forged lasting therapeutic relationships through a level of consistency, dependability, and accountability.I have provided individual, small group, and family counseling to consumers based on their identified needs. The primary goal is to enhance the individual’s mental health, so they are able to reach their highest potential mentally, physically, and spiritually. As a metaphor to life experiences I am an advocate of planting seeds that will cultivate growth in a variety of terrains.

Your pain deserves space to breathe and be heard. Your authentic self deserves tending to. Being human is hard work. In the limited time we exist, we have countless choices to make as we shape the direction and purpose of our lives. In our struggles, perhaps we may feel phony, unsure of ourself, pressured to hide or distort our feelings and thoughts. We may feel paralyzed when trying to make the “right” decisions. We may feel deeply isolated, unable to sustain relationships where we are cherished exactly as we are. We may be haunted by past traumas and unable to forgive. Or we may wonder about our life's meaning. Counseling is a way to explore these and other concerns that are part of being alive. As a humanistic counselor, I am here to hold space for your pain and the story of who you are, and help you make meaning of your experiences. I can offer you a safe and confidential sanctuary where you can express yourself freely, without judgment or criticism. I would be honored to support you as we talk through the fearful, tragic, and chaotic parts of life; connect to your authentic self and genuine feelings; and make meaningful choices about how you care for yourself and your pain, and how you wish to show up in the world. Welcome. May you continue to find your courage to ask for help when you need it.
