Introduction

My work as a Provisionally Licensed Professional Counselor is centered on helping you unlock your fullest potential, whether you're feeling stuck, uncertain, or overwhelmed. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and narratives that have shaped your life, and rewrite those stories to better align with your goals for personal growth and well-being. I believe in a holistic approach that respects all aspects of your experience—emotional, social, and spiritual. Through a supportive and non-judgmental space, we’ll work together to process life’s challenges and integrate them in a way that fosters healing and resilience. My background in the Center for Traumatic Stress Research gave me a deep understanding of how the mind and body work together, which shapes my approach today. I use a blend of person-centered, dialectical, and cognitive behavioral interventions tailored to fit your unique needs. If you're ready to take the next step, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit to work together. Reach out for a free consultation, and let’s start your journey toward healing and growth.
