I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with extensive experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. With a strong foundation in evidence-based therapeutic approaches and a passion for whole person healing, I integrate mental health expertise with faith-based principles to support emotional wellness. I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and families, equipping them with the tools needed for emotional resilience, self-discovery, and healthy relationships.
