Do you often find yourself struggling to sort out your thoughts and feelings about events in your life? Have there been times in your life when you have wondered if you have made the right choices or if there are other possibilities for you? We have all experienced life changing experiences that have shaped us into the people we are today. Sometimes, a listening ear is all we need. Other times, more in-depth exploration of thoughts and feelings is needed before you can feel better. Whichever situation fits for you, I am here to help. I have been in practice for over 20 years and have had experience working with a diverse group of individuals, couples, and families. Together, we have explored trauma events and their impact on individuals and families, family relationships, couples’ issues, and depression, anxiety, infidelity, spiritual dilemmas, and other experiences that have an effect on day-to-day living. My experience extends to adults of all ages, including an older population and caregivers. I am open to working with couples who are experiencing issues, particularly in the area of communication. Working with individuals who are in the early stages of dementia or Alzheimer's Disease are a new and interesting population for me. For me, counseling is a passion. Being a counselor is a calling, it encompasses me as a person and as a professional. It is my hope that you will contact me for counseling so that I can be your companion on your journey to a more peaceful and satisfying future.

I am a Licensed Processional Counselor, practicing for five years with individuals and families. I have mostly focused on helping adolescents, children and adults work through issues of anxiety, depression, insecurity, poor self-image, behavior issues, family relationships and more. My passion is helping others find the answers they need to feel themselves and live the lives they wish to live. My belief is that we know ourselves best, and a therapist supports you in this process of self-discovery and helps you with techniques to battle ineffective habits or thoughts we have. My approach is centered around empowering, encouraging, and validating my clients with a warm and nurturing approach. If you are interested in working together, i would love to virtually meet you and let you see if we are a good fit. Finding the right fit in a therapist sometimes takes a few tries and that’s okay. It’s all about how you click with your therapist and how comfortable you feel to work on lasting change. If you’d like to work together, welcome!
