About

Life can feel overwhelming to everyone at times! You are trying to balance work/family, friends, social life, as well as your own physical and mental health. Finding balance is something everyone can struggle with at times. I want to help you work toward finding balance in your physical health, emotional and spiritual health. Once a person finds that balance, everything falls into place….grades/work performance improves, self-esteem builds, relationships improve and we move toward a place of finding inner peace. I know, you are probably thinking “yeah, right!” I understand and have been there, where my anxiety/worries were taking over my life and preventing me from living in the moment. Once I gained more control over my thoughts I saw it very clearly how much so many people surrounding me struggled with anxiety, depression, self-esteem or anger issues. The good news is, you are the ONLY person who can change your thought process. I have 25 years of experience in social work and 15 in counseling specifically helping others do exactly that, coaching them on how to gain control over their thought process. And I can help you get there too! I am a down-to-earth real, authentic person that practices what I teach. I will never claim to be perfect because there is no such thing, but I chose to strive to always work on being a healthier version of myself. My passion for the last 15 years has been helping people heal from trauma/ stressful life experiences. I am credentialed in the Trauma Recovery and Empowerment Model of therapy for men and women who have suffered from physical, sexual and/or emotional abuse. Prolonged Exposure is another therapy model that I am trained in to help people decrease their symptoms of PTSD. Motivational Interviewing is another evidenced based therapy approach I utilize to help others work on any substance abuse related issues. I am well versed in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and have to utilize this approach in my everyday life on a daily basis. I have seen thousands of people reclaim their life and want to help you do the same!
