About

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I have over 10 years of experience working in the human service field. I have a wide range of expertise in areas including depression, anxiety, parenting problems, relationship issues, grief and loss and substance use.

I believe in treating everyone with respect and meeting you where you are at. My approach in counseling is very warm and interactive. You are the expert on your life, so we will tailor treatment plans and goals around your needs.

It takes courage to seek for a happier life and wanting to make changes is the first step. Let me be the one to help you. We can do this together. I have a passion for this work, I love what I do and enjoy working with people.

I am looking forward to working with you!

I generally can respond at least once per morning and once per evening, sometimes more! I like to enjoy life and take time to recharge on the weekends, which I encourage you to do as well, so I do not respond to messages or scheduling sessions on weekends. Please remember that Find A Therapist is not appropriate if you are in crisis or in immediate need of support. In crisis situations, please call 911 or local emergency services. You can also call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to talk to someone right away!
