Welcome

I do not believe that there is one style of counseling for everyone. My goal is to get to know you and work with you to find the best counseling approach. These approaches along with a hint of humor allow you to be your true self, free of judgment, explore how your past may be impacting your present, and empowers you to find meaning in your life.

About

I'm Happy You're Here!

I imagine there is a reason you found me. If you are experiencing the heavy weight of work, school, family, or life expectations; looking to process childhood trauma, struggling to regulate your emotions; experiencing isolation and loneliness, or are having difficulty making decisions and trusting yourself, and you want to do some self-exploration, build confidence and self-trust and make changes in your life, then you may be in the right place. I believe that you are the expert in your life. My role is not to tell you what is best for you but to listen to you, understand you, and provide a genuine and empathetic space that helps foster your intuition and self-trust. This way, you feel empowered to make grounded decisions in your life and build self-acceptance and confidence. Additionally, I enjoy respectfully using humor in counseling because I believe it serves as a powerful tool for making connections, easing tension, and promoting resilience. I would be honored to collaborate and help support your goals, wants, and needs.
