My passion is helping individuals, couples and teens to live their best, most fulfilling life and to have and enjoy healthy relationships. Life is filled with road blocks and sometimes it can be difficult to focus on what truly matters. Therapy is a pause on that journey,... a time to identify your obstacles, develop new empowering goals and learn new skills to get you back on track. I offer a comfortable, non-judgemental environment to discuss issues that are causing pain in your life to assist you on your path towards greater happiness, peace and purpose.

The focus of therapy is to meet the client's needs through collaboration with client and counselor in establishing and working toward specified treatment goals. I focus on helping aid the client not just treat a diagnosis. I provide clients with professional, confidential counseling through an integrative, specialized, therapeutic approach in a safe and enriching environment.

“You are your best thing.” These words, from one of my favorite novels, Beloved, by Toni Morrison, I believe define the power of therapy. Therapy is a journey of self discovery that aims to help clients achieve a sense of inner peace by enhancing awareness and strength. It isn’t without its challenges, though, and my goal is to be a safe and supportive companion on your journey.

I work with survivors of trauma and childhood abuse, those with PTSD, and addictions. Abuse and trauma leaves a lasting impact on your body and can create symptoms like anxiety, depression, substance abuse, troubled relationships, and insomnia. Is it difficult to function in day-to-day life or do you feel like you just can't get it together? You may be feeling lost, hopeless, stuck, and afraid. Therapy provides a time to be understood and heard in a safe, confidential place. We all have strengths and the answers inside of us, but sometimes we need help peeling back the layers. I understand this because I am a survivor of trauma too.

Life isn't an easy journey for anyone; whether we haven't realized that we need the extra support or we have realized it and just don't know where to start or who to turn to. I like to think of therapy as that first step of knowing where to start and who to turn to. Therapy is more than just about venting, but also about overcoming struggles and making the conscious decision and effort to move in a positive direction in life; no matter the circumstances.

As a therapist I believe in Solution-Focused approaches that empowers the client to make lasting changes in their lives. Utilizing a Person-Centered approach allows for me to customize therapy to match each individual's goals within a compassionate and judgement free zone. I also incorporate Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy within some sessions to combat anxious and depressive thoughts. I have experience working with all different ages and specialize in: anxiety, depression, life transitions, anger management, health concerns, relationship difficulties and traumatic experiences.
