Great to meet you!

You're here! Right here, right now! You may not be where you want to be yet, but you have already taken a step towards facing challenges with a strength you never knew you had. Besides, it doesn't hurt to get a little assistance on the way. I'm here to help you. Let me tell you something. Nothing is as remarkable as seeing positive change in my client! Helping you make even the smallest steps towards your goal every day brings me joy and I make sure to let you know when I've noticed your progress. Even when they seem too small to notice, I'll notice! You’ll be surprised how much a little positivity can help.

I am a licensed professional counselor and a certified rehabilitation counselor with additional experience in helping individuals get back to work to attain the highest success possible after experiencing any life changing issues. I have helped people with almost everything you can think of. I have helped those with mild and severe mental health concerns.

When I counsel, my style is energetic, compassionate, and supportive. I praise your progressions, and I can show you how to be proud of your efforts and steps in the right direction. I am client-centered and I want to listen to you and be as helpful as is humanly possible. I love to empower my clients. I can't wait to meet you!

My approach to therapy

When I begin to work with my clients, I do my best to try to understand who they are versus who they want to be. I take notes, both mentally and physically, to make sure I keep valid information available. After we process the information together, I am able to use what I have learned to help my client with any in discrepancies that come in the way of their goal.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, I will gather information about you, and if you'd like, I can tell you a bit about myself as well. I'm open to any questions that help in the process of building comfort in this experience. I will ask questions about your current circumstances to gain better insight into which of your therapeutic needs I can support.
