I have not only learned through hitting the books of counseling and therapy; I have been in the trenches after a serious car accident. My road to recovery was the starting point of my career in the counseling field. I help others achieve post-traumatic growth and heal themselves from the inside out. I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach to counseling and therapy. You are the expert on yourself subconsciously. My job is to help you tap into that to begin the healing process.

I begin each session with a sense of getting to know each individual as a human being first - with your own unique strengths, resources, and challenges. I want to know who is in front of me and help them get to know me before diving into technical information. I feel that the cornerstone of a good therapy session is the alliance between client and therapist.

Clients should feel validated and heard after leaving my office. They should feel more calm, grounded, and neutral within themselves and have some direction on where to go between this session and the next.
