With more than 12 years of experience in nursing and psychiatric care, I provide compassionate, personalized treatment for adolescents and adults. I specialize in supporting individuals managing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, and mood changes. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel understood and supported every step of the way. I take a collaborative approach to care, combining evidence-based medication management with practical tools to help you feel more balanced and in control of your mental health. Together, we’ll create a treatment plan that fits your life and helps you build the stability and confidence you deserve.
Our first session is all about getting to know you. I’ll ask about your mental health history, current concerns, and what’s worked (or hasn’t worked) in the past. We’ll talk through your goals and develop a plan that feels realistic and supportive. This is a judgment-free space where you can share openly, ask questions, and start building a partnership focused on your well-being.
I bring compassion, attentiveness, and collaboration to every session. My clients often tell me they appreciate feeling truly heard and supported. Together, we’ll create a plan that integrates medication management with practical coping strategies so you can manage symptoms, improve your mood, and move toward a more fulfilling daily life.
I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and other mood concerns. My approach is both empathetic and solution-focused, helping you build tools for emotional balance and resilience. Together, we’ll work toward lasting wellness in a space that’s safe, supportive, and empowering.
Supportive
My supportive approach focuses on building a trusting, collaborative relationship where you feel heard and understood. I integrate medication management, psychoeducation, and practical coping strategies to help you manage symptoms, build resilience, and achieve lasting emotional well-being.
Christian Counseling
I offer Christian counseling for clients who wish to integrate their faith into the healing process. This approach combines evidence-based mental health care with biblical principles, prayer, and spiritual guidance. Together, we’ll explore how faith can provide strength, hope, and direction while addressing emotional challenges and promoting overall well-being.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. Together, we’ll work on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and replacing them with healthier, more balanced perspectives. My goal is to help you build practical coping skills, improve emotional balance, and feel more in control of your daily life.
Motivational Interviewing
I use Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help clients explore their own motivations for change in a supportive, nonjudgmental way. This approach helps you identify personal goals, overcome ambivalence, and build confidence to make meaningful changes in behaviors, habits, or lifestyle choices. Together, we work collaboratively to develop practical strategies that align with your values and support long-term growth.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help clients explore and understand their emotions in a safe and supportive environment. This approach focuses on identifying and processing core feelings, improving emotional awareness, and strengthening relationships—both with yourself and others. Together, we work to create lasting emotional connection, healing, and personal growth.
