About

Thank you for taking time to let me introduce myself. I have been in the counseling field for over 14 years. I have extensive experience with Addictions, Trauma, depression and anxiety along with supportive guidance for life changes and career growth. I have also had great success in treating chronic pain issues with EMDR. While this platform may not support traditional EMDR methods, We may be able to incorporate some of the principles of that therapy in our work together.

My counseling style is warm and conversational. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I'm not a fan of labels. My approach is client centered and solution focussed. I'm happy to help you explore limiting belief systems and to help you make healthy life choices for a more balanced and integrated experience based on your value system and needs. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to that purpose.

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.

I look forward to working with you!
