Our Counselors

Life can be difficult and at times the challenges we face feel impossible. No one should walk through life’s challenges and hardships alone. Everyone deserves a chance to break free from the emotional weight. The decision to attend therapy takes courage and is the first step toward change. Therapy is a place to explore thoughts, behaviors, and emotions with acceptance and support. My passion and approach are with great empathy to help those in need. I provide a safe and nurturing environment for healing and transformation. I believe happiness within ourself can strengthen relationships throughout our lives. I understand individuals may struggle or feel uncomfortable through the healing process. Building trust and a strong rapport is at the core of my practice. I work collaboratively and uniquely to help process emotions and experiences to reach established goals. My therapeutic style is centered around compassion, trust, and respect. My goal is to provide a space for clients to be heard, experience healing, and feel empowered. 

I believe each person has a unique story and experiences which impact our daily lives. I integrate mindfulness and self-care into my practice. My education and training have exposed me to multiple theoretical approaches. However, I look to apply an approach tailored and customized to meet the needs of the client(s). I gravitate toward experiential, emotion-focused, psychodynamic, and humanistic/existential; however, my experience has provided exposure and knowledge with cognitive behavioral (CBT) and dialectical behavioral (DBT) approaches. I enjoy working with individuals, adolescents, and couples. My specialties include working with those struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, decreasing shame and guilt, trust, emotional processing, trauma, and effective confidence building; as well as, other issues.

I am committed to the journey and will walk alongside you as a support, life coach, and mentor. I look forward to working with you.

To summarize comedian Taylor Tomlinson, therapy is like arm floaties: it provides you the tools and skills to help navigate the pool of life. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental, healing environment where you will be met with empathy and we will collaborate to identify, set, and meet your goals. I am passionate about working with individuals that are struggling with anxiety, phobias, negative thoughts, or have experienced trauma in their life. That being said, I am excited to help anyone that is ready to start their therapeutic experience! I take an integrative approach using Cognitive Behavioral, Brainspotting, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, TEAM therapy (Level 1), psychoeducation, Family Systems, Gottman therapy, person-centered techniques, and more. I have an eclectic background and practice with the belief that everyone is unique and that you are the expert in your own life. I believe in leveraging your strengths, empowering you, and eventually helping you take off the arm floaties and lead a life of well-being.
