About
I am a counselor with 17 years of experience with the last 5 being a licensed therapist. I have worked with clients who seek individual, family, and couples counseling. I am an active listener and is always looking for the best tools, tips and strategies for improving client’s emotional mental health. If you are looking for quick fixes, I am not the best counselor to work with. I believe in taking time and working on wellness slowly, holistically, and consistently. Just as physical health takes time and consistency, so does mental health. Be prepared to enter a no judgement, free from criticism and safe place for your feelings and thoughts
Every client has inner thoughts about how they would like their life to look. Through talk therapy clients are empowered to bring those inter thoughts into reality. I am like a treasure hunter seeking to find that hidden treasure. Together, we can jointly come up with goals and solutions that are going to work for you.
Change starts with you. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you to be the best you.
I look forward to working with you
