Life is an extraordinary thing but it can also be full of challenges, especially when situations occur that can seem out of our control. Sometimes life stressors can seem so overwhelming that it can be hard to imagine that light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes it can feel like we are just surviving instead of thriving. My goal is to help you reverse that and really begin thriving in the life you deserve. I utilize a strengths-based, client-centered, collaborative, trauma-informed, and holistic approach that considers the person’s mind, body, spirit and worldview. With a focus on individual strengths and the resiliency of people to overcome obstacles to expand and realize full potential, I walk side-by-side with people on the path to healing.
In 2016, I graduated with a Masters Degree in Professional Counseling. Now, as a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner (LSATP), I have run a diversion program for those in early recovery to give them a chance at treatment and a chance at LIFE as opposed to incarceration. Previously, I have provided both individual and group therapy for non-profit agencies and also as a crisis therapist for those experiencing mental health emergencies. I primarily work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders.
