As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work with children and families navigating life's challenges, whether it is anxiety, social skills, coping skills and relationships. My experience as a School Counselor for over thirty years has given me the experience to identify the needs of the client, build trust and create a positive working relationship. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen and empowered to heal and grow. I believe therapy should be collaborative and grounded in respect, empathy and evidence- based practice. Healing and change doesn’t happen overnight—but you don’t have to go through it alone. As your counselor, I will provide individual Counseling where we will work together to create goals, and a safe space to express emotion. As a counselor and parent of a special needs child, I have an understanding of the daily stress and anxiety children and adults experience, and will work with you to address coping skills, thoughts and relationships. I truly understand that choosing the right counselor for your needs is a big decision and it’s important to feel confident and supported every step of the way. Whether you’re just starting to explore your options or ready to dive in, I’m here to listen, answer your questions, and help you find the best path forward.
