Hi, I'm Lenah, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, psychodynamic, and person-centered approaches to help clients gain insight, build coping skills, and create meaningful change. I strive to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

I earned my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2000. I have served teenagers the past 20 years inpatient and outpatient. I enjoy working with adolescents and young adults. I enjoy working with adults too. I truly love the work I do!

I believe that one of the bravest and most meaningful steps a person can take is beginning to understand their own story. My approach to therapy is holistic, recognizing the interconnected nature of emotional, mental, and personal well-being.

I am committed to meeting you where you are, working collaboratively at a pace that feels comfortable and appropriate for you. Together, we can explore and address the challenges that may be impacting your growth and well-being.

I look forward to partnering with you to gain deeper insight, foster meaningful change, and help shape the future you envision for yourself.
