About Me:

I am an Associate Clinical Mental Health Counselor with experience in treating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, OCD, relationship challenges, and navigating faith transitions. My approach to therapy is client-centered, evidence-based, and tailored to your unique needs. I strive to create a safe environment where clients can connect with their truest, most authentic selves and explore meaningful change. I am dedicated to helping my clients achieve personal goals and improve their overall well-being.

Personal Philosophy: I am a humanistic-existential therapist who believes in the importance of helping clients discover meaning and purpose in their lives and take values-based actions. I believe that awareness leads to choice, and choice leads to change. My work focuses on treating the whole person, recognizing the dynamics of the larger systems in which we live. I believe in the strength and resilience of every individual and am passionate about empowering my clients on their journey toward growth and emotional healing.

Therapeutic Approach: My therapeutic approach integrates Internal Family Systems Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness-based CBT. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and trauma with support and guidance. Together, we work to uncover patterns, gain awareness, and foster lasting change.
