About

I’ve been a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor for 16 years, but started down this path long before making a career of it.  I’ve always had a genuine interest in helping others navigate the many layers of life and often times uncharted emotional experiences that go with it; that combined with my curiosity about the thoughts and feelings that shape our experiences are what led me to become a therapist.  My work allows me to step into the essence of who I am and offers you an opportunity to do the same in your own life.

 

Approach

Drawing from my training as a counselor and coach, I will work with you to understand the underlying reasons behind the patterns of thinking and behavior that have you feeling stuck. I am committed to providing a therapeutic experience that is supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs and personality. Together, we’ll find effective and practical solutions to help you live a more authentic and potentiated life. Whether you feel overwhelmed with everyday struggles or trapped in the shadows of longer-term turmoil, there is hope. I believe you will find it here.
