Great to meet you!

I am a Clinical Professional Counselor licensed by the states of Maryland and Nevada. I earned a bachelor's degree and master’s degree from Louisiana State University. I have over ten years of counseling experience, having worked in clinical and university settings. Although I have specialized training working with adult populations, I provide therapy to clients of varying ages.

My approach to therapy

I believe people are most healthy when they feel understood, accepted and interact positively with others. Therapy provides a unique opportunity for a person's needs to be nurtured in an environment that supports the development of self discovery and change without judgement. I support my clients to better understand their choices, emotions, actions, and relationships. When people become more self aware and develop coping strategies and skills, they are able to change patterns in their lives.

What you can expect from me

Everyone has a need to connect with others, to explore his or her sense of self, and to understand their emotional reactions. It's what makes us human. Our first session will be learning about your personal goals for therapy and how we can work together to achieve these.
