I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who have been in the Social Services field for over 10 years and have focused on providing therapy for the past 6 years. I have experience with working with people from all walks of life and present an open authentic platform that allows clients to process their problems within a safe unbiased environment. I enjoy assisting people in reaching their therapeutic goals by using creative outside the box interventions such as music, art, and narrative therapy. I believe it is important to promote empowerment within one's self as this will continue to help identify strengths that can be used to create a better quality of life. I specialize in treating trauma using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy as well as Dialectical Behavior Therapy as it is believed that everyone has experienced some type of trauma and may not have healed from their experience thereby causing pain and barriers within everyday life.
