Great to meet you!

I've worked with individuals in a non-profit, specializing in substance use and problematic sexual behaviors, gaining valuable insights into human behavior complexities and recovery challenges. As a Certified School Counselor with a background as a teacher and reading interventionist, I offer unique perspectives to support parents navigating the educational system. Whether entering or immersed in education, I provide understanding and guidance.

A bit about my approach to therapy

In my therapeutic practice, I employ an eclectic approach drawing from Reality, Gestalt, and Cognitive Behavior Therapies. I firmly believe that my role is to guide clients in acknowledging, experiencing, and confronting the realities that life presents. Together, we work towards making positive changes to aspects within their control. My goal is to support clients in understanding their needs and desires, empowering them to develop effective plans to meet those needs.

What you can expect from our first session

If you are seeking a therapist who is not only compassionate and driven but also strives to accompany you in your struggles, I am here for you. Together, we can embark on a journey towards self-discovery, positive change, and a life filled with meaning. Reach out, and let's start this transformative journey together.
