Hello! I am passionate about helping adolescents, and adults find healing and personal growth in their day-to-day lives. As someone who entered my first counseling session in 2012, I understand the anxiety and fear of putting yourself out there to begin working with a therapist on issues that are personal and unique to you. I strive to help all of my clients feel safe and comfortable and offer a judgement free zone. I believe in offering 100% unconditional positive regard for all of my clients. That being said, I may not always say what you want to hear. I may offer a gentle push or assist you in recognizing some behavioral patterns that may be holding you back. We all have them!
