Hi, I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and create meaningful change. I earned my training at Stetson University and use a collaborative, solution-focused approach that incorporates art based techniques, narrative techniques, and motivational interviewing to help clients build on their strengths and achieve their goals.

I have experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and involvement with the criminal justice system.

Counseling is an important step on the road to feeling better, better understanding ourselves, and having more satisfying relationships. As a counselor, I walk along you in this journey as you identify goals for your future. I have been working in the field in a diverse array of settings for the past 10 years. I have worked with clients experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, parenting concerns, and involvement with the criminal justice system. I use client-centered techniques with motivational interviewing, CBT, and art based techniques to help you meet your goals.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a comfortable, supportive therapeutic relationship. We'll start by reviewing your rights as a client, discussing confidentiality, and answering any questions you may have about the therapy process.

I'll also spend time learning about you—your experiences, current concerns, strengths, and what you hope to achieve through counseling. Together, we'll begin identifying goals that feel meaningful and realistic for you.

Most importantly, we will go at your pace. You are never expected to share more than you're ready to. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as we begin this journey together.
