About

Hello! I am an organizational psychology doctoral candidate and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 20+ yrs behavioral health expertise & 15+ yrs leadership experience. I hold multiple certifications and have specific niches that encompass my love for helping others embrace life and navigate change! My approach The approaches I use in sessions focus on meeting an individual where they are, and for what they need and want. Some standard practices include Coaching & Counseling, Change Management, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Behavior Change, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. My focus I am passionate about helping motivated individuals (18+) reach their self-defined successes through goal-oriented performance/executive coaching and counseling for occupational compassion fatigue, stress, burnout, & anxiety. The adults that I work with often hold high-profile roles, are leaders in their field and encounter the challenges of being high performers. My communication style We could work very well together if you are looking for a transformational, authentic clinician and welcome a professionally accountable environment to help you grow & step out of your comfort zone to be the best version of you. An individual can expect to experience the following: ~ Clear expectations for sessions & between sessions with Goal-oriented treatment & Client-driven outcomes ~ Supportive processing and challenging when stuck ~ Direct communications ~ Validation & accountability throughout the process My journey to therapy I knew I wanted to be a counselor/psychologist when I was in the eighth grade. I have always been fascinated by the human brain and how people experience the world around them. I have studied psychology and human behavior formally for over 20 years, and informally, all of my life. During the last 15 years in leadership roles, my passion for psychology in the workplace grew.
