Great to meet you!

I am an LPCC that exuberates compassion and understanding and creates a safe and empowering environment to allow struggling individuals a safe space to express their truth, pain, and trauma. I works to empower, guide, heal, and strengthen individuals through an integrative approach designed uniquely for each person I work with.

My approach to therapy

I utilize REBT, CBT and DBT techniques, spiritual guidance, solution focused therapy, ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), and/or an integration of other therapeutic approaches to tailor the best treatment plan for each individual client. We are all unique in our experiences, in our trauma, in our thoughts, and in our goals. What might work for one individual may not work for the next. Allow us to work together to tailor your treatment plan in a way that is specific to your past, your needs, and your ultimate goals.

What you can expect from me

Our Mental Health is our strongest fortitude in regard to social interaction, relationships, success at work or in school and our overall well being, we cannot succeed in life without a healthy mind. I understand the complexity of our mind and the role it plays in our daily functions. No individual can minimize what it feels like to be depressed, sad, unrelatable, not believed, isolated, misunderstood, scared, lost, suicidal, hurt, anxious, scared, alone, broken, or just mentally unstable or lost due to reasons unknown to them. I am here to provide answers, support, guidance, knowledge and experience that you are not alone and I have the patience, compassion, kindness, and education to show you that healing, growth, peace of mind, and an improvement in your symptoms is attainable.
