Great to meet you!

I have experience working in Community-Based, Outpatient, and hospital mental health settings as a licensed professional counselor. I have a passion for working with teens, adults, and older adults to assist them in developing and finding healthy coping skills when dealing with stressors, including life transitions. My areas of expertise and special interest include depression, anxiety, coping skills, interpersonal conflict, racial identity, and stress management.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I approach ethological, strengths-based, and client-centered perspectives that incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy, family system, emotionally focused, and attachment to understand the patterns of behavior that interfere with reaching goals while creating safety for personal growth.

What you can expect from our first session

We’ll work together to establish a collaborative partnership to create a supportive and validating environment where you can feel empowered. I know it can be intimidating to talk about the stories but I’ll be there with a warm heart and an open mind. It is an honor to be part of your therapeutic journey to start obtaining your goals.
