Introduction

Life has a way of surprising us — sometimes with challenges we never saw coming, and sometimes with the quiet, persistent weight of everyday struggles. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: reaching out takes courage, and you don't have to figure it out alone. I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC), and I specialize in anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, and caregiver burnout. But beyond credentials, I'm someone who genuinely believes that every person deserves a space that feels safe, affirming, and completely their own. My approach is person-centered at its core, meaning you lead and I follow your pace. I bring an understanding of how culture, systems, and life circumstances shape who we are and what we carry. Whether you're navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, boundary setting, or struggling to communicate your needs, I'm here to help make sense of it all. I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches to make sure our work together feels tailored to you — not a one-size-fits-all formula. Taking that first step is hard. But you've already started by being here. I'd love to connect, answer any questions you have, or simply set up a time to meet. I'm rooting for you — every step of the way.
