I am a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider dedicated to helping individuals heal, grow, and regain a sense of emotional stability. My approach is warm, direct, and trauma‑informed. I believe people don’t heal in isolation — they heal in safe, supportive relationships where they feel seen, heard, and understood.
Clients often come to me when they feel overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from carrying emotional burdens alone. Together, we work to untangle the patterns that keep you in survival mode and build healthier ways of coping, communicating, and connecting.
I integrate evidence‑based modalities including CBT, DBT, EMDR (trained), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma‑responsive care. My style is structured yet compassionate — I help you understand the “why” behind your emotions while also giving you practical tools you can use right away.
My work is grounded in emotional safety and trust, cultural humility, strength‑based, client‑centered care, clear goals and measurable progress and a non‑judgmental, supportive therapeutic relationship.
I support clients navigating: Trauma and PTSD, anxiety and chronic worry, depression and emotional numbness, grief, loss, and life transitions, shame, self criticism, and low self worth, relationship stress and family conflict, alcohol and substance use, burnout and compassion fatigue and identity development and personal growth
I also have extensive experience in community mental health, crisis intervention, and integrated behavioral health settings.
Therapy with me is collaborative, structured, and empowering. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of your emotional patterns, tools to regulate your nervous system, healthier boundaries and communication skills, space to process trauma safely, and support in rebuilding confidence and self trust
My goal is to help you move from surviving to living with clarity, purpose, and emotional resilience. If you’re ready to begin your healing process, I would be honored to walk with you.
