Licensed Mental Health Counselor

This world is filled with wonder and beauty, but it is also a place of brokenness and pain. Humans are capable of creativity, curiosity, adventure, and love, but we often walk through life in fear, doubt, and confusion, carrying the weight of grief, anger, and loss. Life can be hard sometimes, and we all could use someone to walk with us as we navigate
the storms that come our way. It is my privilege to join with people in seeking to understand the mysteries of their grief, pain, and confusion, working together to build strength, gain insight, and develop pathways toward emotional health. In my counseling work I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to process your experiences, so please reach out if you are interested in working with me as part of your journey to mental and emotional wellness.
My Approach
Personalized Counseling and Therapy Services
I believe that clarity, strength, and healing are often found in the conversations and relationships that develop within the therapeutic space. Searching for insight with curiosity and a non-judgmental attitude opens up previously unnoticed thoughts, ideas, and patterns we have adopted, which then leads to experimentation in new ways of thinking and living. My counseling work is based in the Relational Psychodynamic model, and is informed by other modalities and techniques as needed. I partner with clients to explore their worlds and develop plans that best suit their particular issues. As clients lead and I listen, as I stay inquisitive and tease out client’s beliefs and thought patterns – it is in that relational space that strength and healing happens.
