LPCA | Therapist

I’m glad you’re here! Life is overwhelming and by considering reaching out, you're already taking a step toward healing. I'm here to support you on your journey to wholeness. I'm passionate about supporting individuals navigating life's challenges with a compassionate and collaborative approach. Drawing on evidence-based practices, I strive to create a safe space for exploration and growth, helping you develop coping mechanisms and build resilience to achieve your personal goals. Whether you're facing anxiety, relationship issues, or general life stress, I'm committed to walking alongside you on your journey towards greater wellbeing.

​

I offer a safe, affirming space where you can explore your experiences and emotions without judgment. Through using a Strength-based perspective alongside other therapy techniques, I work with you to identify ways to navigate the life challenges you are experiencing and to promote well-being. As a therapist, I also value the unique experiences and perspectives of each individual, including their spiritual beliefs. I am comfortable incorporating faith-based practices into therapy when appropriate, while always respecting the client's autonomy in this area.

​

Throughout my professional career I have worked with diverse groups of families, adolescents, and adults. For nearly the past decade, I have worked in the criminal justice system. This experience has not only provided me with great knowledge and understanding, but also a great passion for assisting our first responders. Many are operating at a high stress level due to the nature of the job, which often involves exposure to life-threatening situations, traumatic events, and high-pressure environments, putting them at a heightened risk for mental health issues like PTSD, depression, and anxiety.

​

I understand the courage it takes to seek support, and I am here to offer a caring space where you can feel understood and respected. Together, we will work toward creating lasting change, empowering you to reclaim your life with greater peace and self-compassion.
