I believe every individual has the capacity to define who they are and who they want to become, regardless of their past. My job is to help you reconnect, redefine, and re-imagine who you are by discovering what matters most to you. My primary goal as a counselor is to create a space for every individual to explore their lives and find opportunities to grow and create the change they want to see. I take a holistic approach to the counseling experience by exploring nutrition and physical activity with a unique therapeutic approach that combines CBT, Existentialism, Shadow Work, and Dream Analysis. My mission is to help you gain control over Stress and Anxiety, understand and transform past Trauma, navigate Life Transitions, and explore faith-based and spiritual concerns by re-establishing broken or lost connections with who you are, and what is most important to you.

I believe one of the biggest challenges we face when navigating uncertain, difficult, or trying periods of life is finding the courage to reach out and ask for help. One of the most important aspects of effective therapy is the relationship with your counselor. My goal is to provide you with a safe, supportive, judgment-free space. I will meet you where you are, partner with you, and walk alongside you to achieve your goals. I am here to help you find hope and strength again. I look forward to working with you. I enjoy helping others navigate the challenges life brings, such as relationship issues, separation, parenthood, life transitions, sexuality, stress, anxiety, and depression. I believe all individuals have innate, unique strengths. I aim to partner with you to discover those strengths and help you thrive.

I am a person-centered therapist whose main focus is on what you need as a client.

Whether it's exploring emotions, addressing challenges, or building new coping strategies, I strive to create a supportive and non-judgmental space where you feel empowered to grow and heal. I am always open to trying new approaches that align with your needs and preferences because I understand that each journey is personal. My ultimate goal is to help you discover what would make your life more fulfilling, balanced, prosperous, and manageable, while fostering your ability to thrive in your own way.
