I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified School Counselor who works with children, teens, and young adults. I also understand that these challenges can affect the whole family, and I aim to create a space where clients and their families feel heard and supported. I tailor counseling to each client’s needs rather than using the same approach with everyone. Together, we may work on understanding unhelpful thoughts, managing difficult emotions, building coping skills, recognizing strengths, and setting realistic goals. My goal is to provide a safe, encouraging, and judgment-free environment where young people can feel comfortable being themselves. I help clients build skills they can use at school, college, home, work, and in their relationships. Most importantly, I want each client to leave our work with greater confidence in their ability to handle challenges and move forward.

Mental health care is essential to your overall well-being and can help you build the life you want.

Hi there and welcome. My hope is that when you sit down with me, you'll feel like you're talking with someone who genuinely wants to know your story, without judgment or pressure. I believe that trust and genuine understanding help in establishing a good relationship and do my best to meet you where you are in your healing. Some people work best with worksheets, homework, visuals, or just check in's during sessions. We will work together to learn what works best for you. I have experience with kids, adolescents, and adults in group & individual therapy along with dual diagnosis. Outside of being a therapist, I'm a wife, a mom, and a former military spouse who has lived in several countries. Those experiences have taught me that life is full of change, unexpected challenges, and opportunities for growth. Each country and culture have their beliefs and traditions and influence who we are today and the way we see the world.

I am committed to helping my client's overcome addiction, depression, anxiety, and other life stressors that can affect people at different times in their lives.

Do you find yourself constantly worrying or overthinking every possible outcome? Do you feel like you must prepare for the worst just to feel in control? Maybe you struggle with uncertainty, fear making the wrong decision, or feel like everything has to be done perfectly. Anxiety can leave you feeling restless, exhausted, and stuck in patterns that affect your sleep, your relationships, and your peace of mind. Life transitions often bring us into what can feel like “stormy waters.” As Viktor Frankl wrote, “When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.” I specialize in helping those suffering from anxiety, including health care professionals and veterans. You don't have to continue suffering. As a seasoned therapist, I can help you feel empowered to stop the cycle of worry and anxiety, find your sense of purpose, and reclaim your life. The good news is that we've all gone through seasons of our lives when we feel this way. The first step is to reach out to someone for help. My approach is straightforward: together we will identify your goals, establish a problem-solving treatment plan, and go from there. If something is telling you it's time to begin your journey; give me a call.

My philosophy as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, challenges, and hopes while moving toward meaningful change.

It’s tricky being a person. Talk therapy can help. Life can be complicated. Maybe you're going through a big change, feeling overwhelmed by your thoughts, or wondering why you've been stuck in the same patterns. Whatever brings you here, you don't have to figure it out on your own. Sometimes the ways we've always coped stop working as well as they once did. Therapy can help you better understand yourself, navigate challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. Talk therapy can help by providing a structured space to: Understand patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behavior. Work through stress, anxiety, grief, or relationship challenges. Develop coping strategies and communication skills. Explore personal goals, values, and identity. Feel heard by someone trained to listen without judgment. It's not only for crises or mental health diagnoses. Some people use therapy much like they would coaching, education, or preventative healthcare: as a way to better understand themselves and handle life's complexities.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been practicing for over 18 years. In my clinical opinion, all therapeutic approaches come from a place of strength, validation and compassion. In my work, I focus on the concerns you feel comfortable sharing while validating your experiences, creating a compassionate and safe space which allows you to effect change and move past pain, loss, trauma and regret. I aim to teach you that the present moment is truly the gift we have, even if it doesn't always feel that way. Our past is behind us, it can neither hurt us any longer nor be changed. We do not know the future, it is not yet visible. Attempting to prepare for what is to come or holding tight to what is no more, takes us away from the present, the moments we have right now, preventing us from embracing the life we dream of. Old messages, hurts and grief often keep us stuck, holding onto a past that will always be a part of who we are, but in no way defines us. We are not "what" we have endured, rather it is the "what" which forged our strengths, awareness and resilience. The story we create is not written by anyone other than ourselves. The truth in life is that we are all good as we are, right now, in this moment. And the beauty in life is that we can grow to be better, no matter what we may have been told, witnessed or lived. You matter, your journey matters, your recovery is what you decide, what you want and I am proud to be a partner to you in this. Even if you select another therapist, remember you are worth it, always.
