Introduction

Feeling stuck in survival mode? Crashing out? Riding the hot mess express? I’m here for it. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate under the supervision of Jenny Harris, LPC-S. I offer virtual and in-person counseling for teens and adults. My approach is direct, down-to-earth, and empowering. Whether you're struggling with identity, addiction, eating disorders, body image, or something you can't quite name yet, my goal is to help you build a path to healing that feels authentic to you. I believe in the power of understanding, and I’m here to create a space where you can explore your thoughts, gain insight into yourself, and develop the tools to thrive and find freedom. We’ll get real, we’ll get raw, and we’ll find the way forward, together.
