About me

With 16 years of experience in the mental health and social work field, I bring a safe and comfortable environment that promotes discovery and growth. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. My goal is to help clients set healthy, attainable goals for themselves by utilizing CBT approaches. My counseling style tends to be more conversational to allow for issues and concerns to be discussed in a non-judgmental environment. I enjoy working together with clients to discover ways to normalize and manage their feelings in a healthy and safe way. I work with a variety of issues and concerns such as anxiety & depression, addiction/co-occurring, identity discovery & life transitions, PTSD, trauma, codependency, and relationship issues. I believe that it is important to create a strong rapport that revolves around trust, honesty, and respect. If you are interested to know more about me, in my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, working out, and listening to all types of music. I am also an animal lover and enjoy spending time with my four dogs and cat.

Get to know me

I feel that having a conversation with you and challenging you when appropriate helps to understand yourself on a deeper level. My goal is to help you understand why you may react to situations or things the way you do and find ways to manage the feelings and emotions that come with it.
