I have an open minded, nonjudgmental solution oriented prospective. My job and goal is to provide a safe place for expressing and processing emotions and challenges. I have been in counseling for over 20 years and I have a broad range of experiences.

I have a master's degrees in clinical mental health counseling, a graduate certificate in child and adolescent psychology, and specialty training in trauma therapies.

My ideal client is a parent seeking compassionate, knowledge-based expert care for their child struggling with mood, behavior, or developmental concerns: or an adult navigating stress, anxiety, or emotional challenges. They want clarity, support, and a personalized plan that fosters healing and growth. Whether they’re facing ADHD, depression, or simply feeling overwhelmed, they’re looking for a provider who listens, understands, and empowers them or their child to thrive. They value a collaborative, culturally sensitive approach and want care that fits their individual lives.
