I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2002 and feel fortunate to have worked with people of all ages, from children to adults. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of clinical settings, which has helped me appreciate the many different paths people take in life. Each client brings their own story, and I value creating a welcoming space where they feel comfortable, supported, and truly heard. I'm here to support a variety of clients client needs, especially those navigating significant life transitions, processing health and wellness concerns, or seeking clarity in their interpersonal relationships. My passion is walking alongside clients as they navigate challenges and discover new ways to grow and thrive.
In our first session, my goal is to create a safe, comfortable space where you feel truly heard. I believe counseling is a conversation with purpose. Together, we’ll begin to explore what brings you here, clarify your goals, and start identifying the tools and support that can help you move forward. I will ask about what tools you've found successful in the past as well as what hasn't been helpful. There’s no pressure to have it all figured out right away, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. My role is to listen without judgment, offer support, and help you gain understanding and direction as we move forward together.
I’ve been trained in a variety of treatment approaches and have experience working with people needing intensive therapy as well as those seeking brief, solution-focused treatment. This flexibility allows me to adapt to what works best for you. You’re the driving force in this process, and I take my cues from you. My role is to offer support, guidance, and practical tools to help you move toward the changes you want in your life.
If the idea of formal, intimidating therapy sessions is holding you back, my style is for you. I've found that clients who thrive in a genuine, open dialogue, rather than a rigid session, achieve the best results. If you appreciate a human connection and an environment where you can talk openly and freely, we'll be a great fit.
