Great to meet you!

My favorite part about counseling is letting people know they are NOT crazy! Many feel like they are the only ones struggling and it is not true. I want to help you understand what is happening and let you know that you don't have to be a victim of your feelings. I use cognitive behavioral therapy in our sessions where we work to identify the negative thought patterns that are causing your feelings of anger, anxiety, and depression. Then we can work to change the way you feel by changing how you think. Let's figure out what motivates you and where the pain points.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to help you see the big picture, decide what matters, and support you to take action. I will be your biggest cheerleader, but remember that we cannot control or change anyone else, the only person you can control or change is yourself. No one else is responsible for your happiness.

What you can expect from me

I can't wait to meet you and get started!
