I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LMHC) in Indiana and Washington with 14 years of professional work experience.

I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I welcome the opportunity to work with you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we’ll start with brief introductions and then dive into your specific challenges. This will help create a treatment plan tailored for you individually for us to work through during follow-up sessions. It is recommended to meet weekly initially during the first month or so to build skills necessary to thrive, then consider bi-weekly sessions for maintenance.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Additional areas of focus: Abandonment, Attachment Issues, Body Image, Caregiver Issues and Stress, Chronic Pain Illness and Disability, Communication Problems, Control Issues, Divorce and Separation, Forgiveness, Guilt and Shame, Impulsivity, Isolation / Loneliness, Life Purpose, Midlife Crisis, Money and Financial Issues, Mood Disorders, Narcissism, Panic Disorder and Panic Attacks, Post-traumatic Stress, Pregnancy and Childbirth, Self-Love, Sexuality, Social Anxiety and Phobia, Women's Issues, Workplace Issues. I strongly follow the cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) methods and solution-focused therapy (SFT).
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with a diverse population of clients (seniors, children, adolescents, court-ordered, and developmentally disabled), there is no specific preference. I am comfortable with all of the mentioned populations.The ability to help others become their best self and overcome issues.An open, honest, licensed therapist who will respect your time and perspective.
