I'm so honored to support you on this journey
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and have been practicing for approximately 7 years. I have experience helping individuals, couples, adolescents, and adults with anxiety, depression, sexuality, life/career choices, interpersonal relationships, and parenting concerns. I am a trauma informed therapist that assist clients in solution seeking through a CBT approach.
I find the relationship between myself and the client is vital, and thus rapport building while respecting one's individual needs and values comes first. I am compassionate and honest. I believe in doing the hard work to see the change that is desired.
I have personally experienced the true value of good therapy and thus know the courage it takes to really do the work. I will stand beside you as you take the steps to effect the change in your life you desire.
I look forward to working with you!

Norma has been wonderful! She has helped so much by creating a comfortable space for me to open up. She is intentional in session and allows me to explore my thoughts in a supportive yet challenging way.

Norma is amazing. Very down to earth, non judgmental and allows me to speak freely on whatever I need counseling on. I'd recommend her 10 times out of 10
