“Everything you’ve faced so far, you have survived. I believe it is within reach to not only survive but thrive”. People often say my “casual style” and “attention to detail” helps others quickly feel comfortable opening up and sharing their story. I am passionate about seeing others thrive in growth and happiness. I use a combination and personalized approach to counseling to help each person discover the power within themselves to experience positive change as needed. I specialized experience in counseling those participating in medication assisted treatment such as methadone and suboxone, and my prior military, medical, teaching, and coaching experience allows me to diversify therapeutic approaches. Common approaches used are CBT, Person-Centered, and integrated wellness approaches to incorporate physical and emotional wellness components. I have experience in substance/MAT, nutrition, weight loss, chronic medical, sleep disorder concerns.

My approach to therapy is hope-focused and client-centered. More often than not, clients hold the answers to their questions within themselves, and my role is to facilitate the exploration and growth process towards healing and peace. I tend to be pretty straight-forward and pragmatic, and I appreciate the privilege of being allowed to walk alongside my clients through life's challenges and difficulties. My strongest skills lie in working with anxiety, depression, communication, and life transitions/changes.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with nearly 20 years of mental health experience in a variety of treatment settings. I currently only provide individual counseling to adult clients. I tend to be a "jump right in"/very direct type of therapist and I mostly use Solution Focused and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) methods in my practice. I enjoy helping clients identify where they are, where they want to be, and how therapy can assist them on their journey. I am a generalist therapist and my primary specialties are working with clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, co-dependency tendencies, grief, and life stressors/transitions. As a social worker, I also believe environment and identity are important factors in who we are, what we struggle with, and the opportunities and roadblocks we might face. I seek to be inclusive in my therapeutic approach and respectful of how individual and societal elements affect a person's treatment needs and goals.
