Education- MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
Licenses - Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate
Hello and Welcome! First and foremost, I'd like to commend you on taking the first step. Oftentimes the first step is the hardest, but... YOU'VE DONE IT! Often, I ask clients, “How do you eat an elephant?” After the looks of bewilderment subside, I am most often told, “You can’t”. As your counselor, it is my hope to show you that it can be accomplished. But how? "One small bite at a time." My ideal client is one who is willing to take a chance on becoming the absolute best version of themselves. It is my hope that in working together, we can tackle the stressors of everyday life and get back to living a fulfilled life.
I have experience providing individual, family, and group counseling services for children, adolescents, adults and couples in a variety of settings. My special interests include relational issues, communication skills, adjustment issues, and mild psychiatric diagnoses such as: anxiety & depression, bipolar, personality disorders, and conduct disorders.
I understand that you may be nervous. I understand that this may be totally new for you or perhaps you're trying yet again to find "your person". Let's connect and see if we're a good fit. I'd love to help you become the person you were born to become. LET'S DO THIS!
