I believe everyone has the innate strength to grow and heal into the person they want to be. Sometimes, it is helpful to have an empathetic, professional guide to help you get there. That’s where I can come in. I provide a nonjudgmental, open atmosphere to practice skills and grow. You shouldn’t have to walk alone. It can be scary exploring fears, regrets, and goals, but the difficulties this life can bring doesn’t have to weigh you down forever. I am passionate about helping you grow into your strongest, most confident self. As a counselor, I do this through interactive, warm, and empowering sessions. I have varied experiences that I choose to draw on to provide a complete and fulfilling counseling experience. In addition to therapy, I have worked as a personal coach, a court-appointed child and family investigator, and a volunteer with CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates). I also teach parenting lessons. I understand how each situation and person are unique. What works for you won’t work for the next client, and neither should it. Being adaptable and bringing many tools to the table is part of what makes a good counselor. I use a variety of counseling techniques such as mindfulness, self-compassion, inner child work, assertiveness training, and empowerment.
