LPC, 16 years of experience
Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 16 years of experience in the mental health field. I am passionate about creating an environment where individuals can heal and grow in a safe and supported space. I provide quality care using a genuine approach. I incorporate compassion, authenticity and respect into all interactions during our time together. I consider it an honor to hear others’ stories and to support them.
When meeting with me, you will be welcomed into an open and nonjudgmental space to share stressors and goals for therapy. I will work to develop a collaborative and trusting alliance with you. My goal is to help you feel empowered and ready to make changes. Together, we’ll explore strategies to manage stress, set boundaries, and build resilience — so you can continue to care for others without losing yourself in the process.
My lived experiences and years of providing compassionate therapy have enabled me to provide insightful, meaningful support. I believe life's too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. Let me help you learn and develop better ways to address issues that are standing in the way.
I love working with people who want to learn more about themselves and who want to make meaningful changes in their lives. People who feel stuck or overwhelmed by life's challenges benefit from my approach and support.
I will guide you in recognizing how unhelpful or negative thought patterns are negatively affecting your life and relationships. These patterns can make us feel stuck and lead to struggles with anxiety and depression. Using CBT, along with my guidance, will enable you to gain a better understanding of your emotions, behaviors and motivations.
I am a DBT certified therapist. DBT focuses on developing skills to manage emotions and improve interpersonal relationships. DBT is helpful because it combines emotional acceptance and change strategies in a practical, structured way.
