Great to meet you!

i have been in the counseling field for over 20 years. During that time, I have helped many clients work through tough issues and build positive lives and thought processes. My approach to therapy is empathic and direct. I offer a safe space where each person is free to be their authentic self, no judgement, no criticism, just healthy feedback. My goal is to empower you to reach your fullest potential by helping you resolve issues and become the person you want to be.
