About Me

Why I do what I do?

Having been through a lot in my teenage years into adulthood, where I learned self-confidence, I have found that if I had someone to help me work through issues of stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and many other life factors I would have been successful sooner.  

I have experience in diverse cultures where I have found I learn just as much from the people around me as they learn from me.  Having an open mind and listening to my clients helps me to relate and understand them and develop a treatment plan or plan of action with them that makes them feel comfortable.

I have an extensive history helping individuals understand their career path, educational needs, and learning life skills.  I have a passion for mental health because of the family history with depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, and substance abuse, and it drives me to want to help others.

I believe it is important to empower individuals, couples, and families towards a sense of normalcy and autonomy, and developing skills to meet the goals they have for their lives.  Taking a holistic approach to counseling I take into consideration the whole person and stive to build a good working relationship with each client to better understand them, helping them feel at ease at a time that may feel stressful and awkward, and helping them navigate life's challenges. 

In my free time I like to go to the beach, take a walk in nature, and enjoy spending time with my children and 2 dogs.  I also enjoy learning, reading, and going to amusement parks when time allows.  

I look forward to meeting you and working with you to achieve your goals on your journey to mental health and wellness.

Seeking counseling can seem scary and overwhelming, I am here to help!
