LPC, 6 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience supporting both individuals and couples through a wide range of challenges. I am also certified in anger management treatment and have worked extensively with adults and adolescents in both individual and group settings. My clinical background includes helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, alcoholism, and substance use concerns. I also have a strong passion for helping people who feel overwhelmed by burnout, struggle with boundaries, or find themselves in moments of major life transition—whether that’s a career change, a shift in a relationship, or a season of personal growth.
Our first session is all about getting to know you and helping you feel comfortable. I’ll ask some questions about what brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping to work on, and what support looks like for you right now. There’s no pressure to share everything at once—this is simply a chance for us to begin building a connection at a pace that feels right. We’ll talk about your history, current challenges, and any goals or priorities you have. I’ll also explain how therapy works, answer any questions, and make sure you understand the process, your rights, and what you can expect from therapy.
My greatest strength as a therapist is my determination to meet you where you are and assist you in achieving your goals. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, respected, and encouraged as we work together to build insight, strengthen coping skills, and support meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.
I work best with clients who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and make intentional changes in their lives. My ideal client is willing to reflect, experiment with new skills, and show up authentically—even on the tough days. They may be working through relationship challenges, stress, anger, boundaries, or unmet emotional needs, and they’re looking for guidance that is both compassionate and practical.
