Great to meet you!

I am dually licensed as a nurse practitioner and a licensed professional counselor. I have been working with adults, adolescents, and children for more than 20 years. I have extensive experience with populations in crisis, mood disorders, and helping individuals identify their goals with clarity.

My approach to therapy

I start with understanding and clarification of the client's goals for treatment.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to gain a collaborator in their journey. My goal is to provide a supportive environment for clients to explore and clarify their desires. Note: I do not prescribe controlled substances. If you are currently prescribed or are expecting to need a controlled medication as part of your treatment, I am not able to accommodate this.
