Introduction

Greetings! I am a dedicated and compassionate counselor with a firm belief in the power of a flexible and integrative approach to therapy. My goal is to tailor sessions to the unique needs and objectives of each individual, meeting them where they are on their journey. In my practice, creating a nurturing and understanding environment is paramount. I'm committed to helping individuals discover their inherent strengths and fostering curiosity about their lives and thought patterns, all while building a foundation of self-compassion. My specialty includes individuals who grapple with addiction and addictive behaviors. I illuminate patterns that contribute to addiction, while simultaneously addressing mental health struggles. My experience extends to working with adults on the autism spectrum, aiding those dealing with depression, anxiety, grief and navigating various life transitions. I currently lead a recovery process group for those in recovery. For me, there is no greater honor than accompanying individuals on their counseling journey. I am devoted to illuminating a path of recovery, offering a secure space for exploration and growth. Feel free to send me a secure message with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!
