Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Maryland. I received my master’s from Purdue University Global and have been practicing for 7 years. I served in The United States Army, and I help veterans struggling with post traumatic stress disorder and to transition into civilian life. I help adults struggling with managing mental health symptoms and to become the best versions of themselves.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we’ll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you’re facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Attending & Listening: I feel that I can make clients feel comfortable enough to confide in me and to build healthy rapport. I pay attention to verbal and nonverbal communication and listen without judgment. Empathy: I have struggled with mental health in my lifetime and because of that I believe I expresses regard and respect for the client’s experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have extensive experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In my work, I support individuals in identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, challenging cognitive distortions, and developing more balanced, realistic perspectives. This approach is especially effective for concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and relationship challenges. My style with CBT is collaborative, practical, and tailored to each person. I don’t take a rigid, “worksheet-only” approach—instead, I integrate real-life experiences, emotional processing, and curiosity into our work. Together, we explore what’s underneath patterns, while also building concrete skills you can use in your daily life. I also incorporate elements of mindfulness, self-compassion, and motivational techniques to help clients not just change their thoughts but deepen their understanding of themselves. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported while also gaining tools that empower you to navigate challenges more confidently and independently over time.
