I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 16 years of experience supporting individuals and families navigating depression, anxiety, substance-use concerns, mood disorders, trauma, and post-traumatic stress disorder. I also have extensive experience working with those impacted by traumatic events and substance-use history. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your emotions, deepen self-awareness, and begin healing with support that meets your unique needs.

I earned my master’s degree in community counseling from Argosy University. I use mindfulness-based and spiritually-informed approaches, along with dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused techniques. I work creatively and flexibly to tailor treatment to each person or couple I serve.

My goal is to help you piece together the parts of your life so you can move toward wholeness. I value open, honest dialogue because healing begins when we can acknowledge our pain without fear or judgment. Together, we can build clarity, foster resilience, and create meaningful pathways toward the life you want
