I believe meaningful change starts with feeling truly seen, heard, and understood. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by intense emotions, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or unsure of how to move forward—and that’s okay. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

I work with individuals who are navigating challenges like anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and emotional ups and downs. If you often feel like your emotions are hard to manage or situations become overwhelming quickly, you’re not alone, and there are ways to build more balance and control.

My goal is to create a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment, while also helping you develop the skills to better cope, communicate, and move forward with confidence. Therapy with me is not just about talking, it’s about learning practical tools and creating real, lasting change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-MHSP) with more than 15 years of experience in the behavioral health field. My career began in residential treatment in 2010, and I have since worked in residential, community-based, school-based, juvenile justice, and outpatient settings. Since 2018, I have provided counseling services to adolescents and their families, and since 2024, I have worked with adults facing a variety of mental health concerns.

I specialize in helping adolescents, adults, and families navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, behavioral concerns, and difficulties related to school, work, and family dynamics. I also have extensive experience supporting youth and families involved with Juvenile Justice and the Department of Children's Services.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), family therapy, and other interventions tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.

I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe, heard, and supported. Whether you are a teen struggling with anxiety, a family facing communication challenges, or an adult navigating stress, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, or life transitions, I will work alongside you to identify goals, build on your strengths, and develop practical skills for lasting change.

My goal is to help clients gain insight, build resilience, and move forward with greater confidence and hope. I would be honored to support you on your journey toward healing and personal growth.
