About

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of clinical experience. I enjoy working with a variety of clients from all walks of life and have specialized training in perinatal mental health, trauma, substance abuse, and career counseling. I am an ALLY trained, culturally competent therapist, with years of experience in helping individuals from marginalized groups. I have extensive experience working with military service members and their families. I am passionate about helping individuals with performance/sports psychology issues, particularly athletes.

As a counselor, I enjoy meeting new people and motivating them towards positive change by helping them find and implement their own solutions. Professionally, I utilize cognitive analytic, solution-focused brief therapy approaches to help clients formulate and find success in their own goals. Trauma informed practices and motivational interviewing techniques are essential in this approach. I bring my own background of teaching and coaching into the clinical arena in helping individuals explore new alternatives and solutions that work for them individually, as I believe each person brings his or her own unique challenges and strengths into the therapy environment.
