Reaching out for support can feel like taking the first step onto an unfamiliar path, and finding the right therapist means choosing someone you trust to walk alongside you. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), and National Certified Counselor (NCC) with over a decade of experience supporting individuals and couples through anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, and major life changes. I bring warmth, compassion, and a genuine desire to understand what you’re going through. My hope is that you feel comfortable being yourself and know that you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone.

I believe therapy should be as unique as the person sitting across from me—there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach. Everyone brings their own story, experiences, and strengths into the room, and what works for one person may not feel right for another. I take time to really get to know you and what you’re hoping for, so we can shape therapy in a way that feels supportive, collaborative, and meaningful. My style is warm, respectful, and down-to-earth, and I aim to create a space where you feel genuinely heard and supported as you move forward.

When we first meet, I’ll take time to learn about you, what brought you to counseling, and what you hope to gain from our work together. We’ll talk about your current concerns, relevant experiences, strengths, and goals at a pace that feels comfortable for you. You’ll also have an opportunity to ask questions and share what has or hasn’t been helpful in the past. By the end of the session, we’ll begin developing a plan that feels realistic, meaningful, and tailored to your needs.
