I've been a counselor for over 20 years – I truly enjoy it every day. I am thankful to have had and continue to have the opportunity to walk with people on their journey, and get to see them grow stronger and become their best.
I use techniques such as experiential therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, to help you move thru limitations and create understanding of where you have been and where you want to go.
I believe each individual can heal and grow once understanding occurs. I work to create this within my office by providing personalized attention for all your needs.

Fundamentally, I believe we all have a deep need and desire to feel seen, heard, and understood. When this isn't met, it opens the door for unhealthy coping - potentially leading to uncomfortable feelings or just feeling "stuck", creating struggles in our daily lives that are difficult to navigate alone.
I work alongside you to explore aspects that may be creating a blocks for you. It is a privilege for me to be with you to discover your true self.
I strive to create a safe, comforting environment where pain and self-defeating patterns can be acknowledged, explored, and shift to be seen and utilized as strengths.
