Therapy is a safe, confidential place to explore your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, lived experiences, relationship with yourself, and connections with people in your life. With the right therapeutic relationship, it can be a healing journey. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, with supervision designation, and a fervent mental health advocate. I believe you are the expert of your own life and I am here to guide and support you with my knowledge, experience, and training. As Lisa Olivera said, "Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you, doesn't mean you can, should, or need to do it alone." I specialize in helping older teens, young adults, and adults explore the impact of their lived experiences, past and present, on their self, mental health, and well-being. I take a client-centered, trauma-informed, and collaborative approach with my clients to create personalized plans to manage difficult and painful experiences, emotions, and stressors. You've already taken the first step by being here! Your bravery in reaching out does not go unnoticed. Let's build a connection and create a space together where you feel supported, heard, seen, and cared about as we navigate what you are going through.
