I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor(LCPC) and Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) who works from an attachment-based, experiential, and emotion-focused framework. I provide a safe, empathetic, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions, patterns, and lived experiences in the present moment.

Emotional pain as well as stress are part of the human experience. Sometimes finding our way to center and calm seems impossible, but it is not. You deserve to have a full and happy life. Mental health recovery is truly possible for everyone. With a healing partnership we will find the way to your optimal self, achieving your goals for wellness.

My passion is witnessing the growth and healing that comes from leaning into vulnerability and exploring blocks from a place of compassion and curiosity. I support clients as they learn tools to work through challenges while doing deep inner work to cultivate self-love, inner peace, and confidence.

I work with adults and couples dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, and substance use. My goal is to help you make progress and start feeling better through a collaborative, understanding approach.

Life can be hard, and at times the challenges we face can feel overwhelming or isolating. Counseling can be a helpful and supportive space to process life's struggles, ask hard questions, and experience healing.
