Great to meet you!

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with almost ten years of experience working with individuals that range in age from 3 years old to 93 years old. I meet the client where they are in their journey to assist them with establishing the goals that they wish to achieve and the action plan to get there together.

My approach to therapy

I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment therapies. I integrate other modalities as needed.

What you can expect from me

Our work together includes addressing personal experiences, family experiences, and community influences. I enjoy being creative and really personalizing your goals and treatment plan to best be complimentary to your style of learning.
