Since an early age, I have been passionate about interacting and helping others. This field gives me the chance to do that everyday, and to have the opportunity to learn about people's talents and strengths.

I feel my strength lies in working with young people, specifically children and adolescents. I also work best with those of any age who have experienced, whether that is the passing of a loved one or any other type of loss.

Any client I come in interaction with excites me. However, I would say my passion lies with helping children and adolescents, especially adolescent males. I enjoy helping this population feel accepted to express their emotions. I also enjoy working with clients of all ages process experiences with life transitions and grief.

I wish all humans, not just clients, would be able to naturally recognize their one talents and capabilities. When our self-esteem is low this can be difficult, but the guidance of a trusted individual like a counselor can help.

Thriveworks provides flexibility and control for clients to seek support from a therapist they can trust and on a schedule that is most suitable for them.

People in this world trying to do good and make a difference.

Clients can expect me to provide a calm presence to better help with the adjustment to this new experience.

I hope to accomplish a basic comfort level for the client, as well as understanding of the goals to be addressed in future sessions.

Before entering a session, I hope clients know that I truly enjoy this work, and that I do my best to build connections.

Spending time outside, traveling, reading non-fiction, listening to music, and socializing with friends.

I think I am someone who tries to see the good in people, which is something I try to do in all aspects of my life.
