Is your glass half full or half empty? Whether your glass feels half full, half empty—or like someone knocked it over entirely—we can work together to refill it. No matter your walk of life, you deserve to feel heard, supported, and empowered. I work with children (ages 6–10), adolescents, and adults, helping clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion and practical tools. You may be facing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, or simply feeling stuck. My goal is to help you feel understood, in control of your behaviors, and confident in your ability to create the life you want.
By tailoring therapy to your unique needs, I specialize in a variety of therapeutic approaches, including CBT, client-centered, and solution-focused approaches. In my work as a Counselor, my goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space to explore feelings of isolation, build self-esteem, manage stress, and strengthen relationships.
If you are feeling anything I have talked about above, or if you just need someone to listen to or talk to, I care and I am here for you. My struggles have granted me a profound empathy and respect for those that I have the pleasure of connecting with. When you are ready, take that first step and reach out so that we can get started.
