Great to meet you!

With over 19 years of counseling experience, I understand how difficult it may be to take that first step to enter therapy. I believe that people are capable of making life changes, sometimes needing support and guidance. Oftentimes, natural supports surround us, we are just unaware of how to tap into them.

My approach to therapy

My approach is eclectic, as I understand that each person's experiences are unique to them. Therefore, each person may respond better to a different modality of treatment. Whatever the approach, I am always client-focused as you are the expert of your life.I use a strength-based perspective which promotes motivation and success.

What you can expect from me

Let's work together to overcome life's barriers and help you to live your best life.
