LMHC, 8 years of experience
New to Grow
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Clinical Hypnotherapist who helps clients heal from trauma, self-doubt, addiction, and repeating patterns that leave them feeling stuck. Having walked my own path of recovery and healing, I understand how powerful it is to uncover the core wounds and hidden beliefs shaping your life. Together, we’ll create lasting change so you can feel confident, connected, and free.
Our first session is a chance to slow down, get to know each other, and create a sense of safety. I’ll invite you to share what brought you to therapy and what you hope to change. Together, we’ll explore the patterns or challenges you’ve been facing and begin to uncover the deeper beliefs and wounds that may be shaping your experience. I’ll explain how I work, answer any questions, and collaborate with you on a treatment plan tailored to your goals. My intention is for you to leave our first meeting feeling heard, supported, and more hopeful about the path ahead.
My greatest strength is helping clients uncover the patterns they have carried for years and how those patterns quietly influence their self-worth, relationships, and choices. I ask meaningful questions with both honesty and compassion, creating space for real breakthroughs. With training in both traditional therapy and clinical hypnotherapy, combined with years of experience in trauma recovery and addiction work, I guide clients beyond surface-level coping skills into deeper healing and lasting change.
My clients are often high-achieving, capable individuals who appear ‘put together’ on the outside but struggle internally with self-doubt, people-pleasing, or cycles of unhealthy relationships. Many are in recovery from trauma or addiction and feel stuck repeating old patterns. They are ready to understand themselves on a deeper level, confront the beliefs holding them back, and create a more authentic, empowered life. If you feel exhausted from trying to prove your worth, disconnected from your true self, or unsure how to break free from repeating struggles, you’ll find a safe, supportive, and empowering space here.
I use CBT to help clients recognize the connections between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, particularly when those patterns are tied to deeply held beliefs about self-worth or fear of rejection. By challenging and reframing these narratives, clients begin to break free from cycles of self-doubt and people-pleasing.
I bring in MI to support clients in identifying what they truly value beneath the noise of old wounds or external validation. This method helps clients move past ambivalence and align their choices with the empowered, authentic life they want to create.
As a Certified Clinical and Transpersonal Hypnotherapist, I guide clients into deeper states of awareness where the subconscious reveals patterns of self-sabotage, low self-worth, and unhealed core wounds. This process allows clients to reframe limiting beliefs at their root, creating space for empowerment, freedom, and new possibilities.
Much of my work centers on helping clients understand how unresolved trauma shapes core beliefs about safety, love, and belonging. By approaching with compassion and pacing, I support clients in recognizing these patterns without re-traumatization and guide them toward reclaiming a sense of agency.
Through psychodynamic exploration, I help clients connect early relational experiences and family dynamics with their current struggles. This process uncovers unconscious beliefs and attachment wounds that drive present-day self-sabotage, opening the door to healing and new ways of relating.
