About

Greetings, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 10 years experience in the mental health field. As your therapist, I provide a safe and supportive space for helping you overcome life challenges, because I believe everyone deserves to live a fulfilling and flourishing life. Our work together begins with establishing a good therapeutic rapport that enables trust and promotes personal growth. I know how important it is feel understood and I want every client to feel heard and respected. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to counseling that involves helping clients identify and use their inner strengths to reach their life goals. My work with clients focuses on exploring feelings, increasing self awareness, and making healthy lifestyle changes. I have a passion for working with clients having difficulty managing everyday challenges, life changes, mental health conditions and navigating personal relationship. I also provide supportive services for clients experiencing grief and loss.
