I have worked with clients in a variety of settings including inpatient/hospitalization to outpatient services and have supported them throughout whatever struggles they are facing. I am a down to earth counselor who connects with clients on a personal level. I believe therapy is about building strong relationships and connecting with someone who can help you become a better version of yourself. I use my training in trauma and CBT to assist clients with their symptoms.

I provide trauma-informed care to women and men. I want to help clarify whatever it is you want to heal. What is it that you aren't getting from your environment that leads you to overwork, over think, isolate or continue habits you already know don't serve you? To communicate better in your relationships I will use what I’ve learned to help guide you in how to disagree without hurting, highlight what is already working, and uncover the struggles you face to get to the core reasons why we get stuck. I help individuals with ADHD, OCD, and other anxiety disorders. The label doesn't matter as much as you do.
