I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor; I offer a welcoming, empathetic, and thoughtful approach to how I work with my clients. I strive to create a collaborative and safe space to heal and process. I have an honest and authentic approach to therapy which includes accountability from my clients, and ownership of self- identified concerns and goals. I value the importance of having a therapeutic relationship. I support by providing education, coping strategies, grounding techniques, goal setting, and skill building to help you feel knowledgeable and empowered while in therapy. I recognize that each person has their own struggles and experiences unique to them and I tailor therapy based on the needs of each individual.
