My desire to be a fellow traveler on a client's therapeutic journey is seeded in my first-hand knowledge of the healing benefits of a trusting, counseling relationship. As participants in the human experience, we endeavor and triumph. We face traumas and adversity that shape our views, and negatively influence the present day and our hopes for the future. We have fears and anxiety, which halt our progress and stifle our joy and inner peace. As an integrative counselor, I embrace a hope-based philosophy built on four theoretical pillars: humanistic, psychoanalytic, cognitive behavioral, and postmodern theory. I strive to be an experienced guide for my clients as they move towards making the changes necessary to accomplish their mental health, wellness, education, and career goals. My competence as a therapist comes from academic and professional experience, life-long intuition, and my own intrapsychic journey. I would be honored to be there for you, to listen, to provide perspective, and even to offer direction as you explore the thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviors, which lead to your struggles. I hope you will reach out today.
