My vision is to empower the LGBTQ+ community. I provide individual and couple counseling to those dealing with trauma, addiction and codependence. I especially enjoy working with couples. I serve the LGBTQ+ community, and I am proud to be part of that community as well. I am very passionate about helping my clients become authentically themselves in every way. I provide support for LGBTQ+ clients who are navigating negative experiences, sexuality/gender issues, trauma, relationship issues and spiritual/religious abuse. I take what I have learned through experience and education and assist my clients in the areas that create stress, anxiety and depression.
I'm here to provide support, understanding, education, and professional guidance as we process your thoughts and emotions together, enhance your self-awareness, and use of your inner strengths so you are able to grow into the best version of yourself.
My mission is to empower and educate. As a Board Certified Professional Counselor, I enjoy building relationships with my clients as I help them achieve their goals. Clients learn how to utilize their inner strength and develop new tools and confidence that moves them towards long term change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor who has worked therapeutically with clients in institutional and outpatient settings, and in private practice with individuals, couples, and families. My passion is to help people become empowered to embrace themselves and their strengths by helping release their distressing feelings and pain while simultaneously learning healthier coping skills to help you move towards improved day-to-day functioning. I now work exclusively in private practice and specialize in working with pre-adolescents, adolescents, and adults. There is nothing more sacred than watching a person blossom into who they are meant to be as they release the shackles of their disturbances and traumas. Just imagine how freeing it will be to feel happy, joyous, and free!

Are you a teen, adolescent or young adult who feels overwhelmed by life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Do you feel like sometimes you are expected to be a super hero and be all things to all people? Allow me to create an environment that empowers you by teaching you to help you first.
My background in mental healthcare enables me to bring a new perspective to people navigating stressful transitions and confronting difficult issues in their lives. I help people move forward with self compassion and increased understanding of themselves and others. The treatment I do is designed to meet individual concerns and needs. Greater clarity and new insights lead to successful resolutions.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have spent over 18 years collaborating therapeutically with individuals, families, and schools. My passion is to help people learn ways to capitalize on their strengths, to help create an openness to gain improved skills, and to provide support as clients set a path towards improved day-to-day functioning. My experience has allowed me to help children, adolescents, and adults in private practice, juvenile justice settings, community settings, and school settings.
I now work exclusively in private practice and specialize in working with adults. I have treated a wide variety of conditions and have developed specialties in supporting those affected by depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, parenting concerns, coping difficulties, and chronic illness.
I have a wealth of respect for those who choose to enter counseling. My goal is to provide a supportive and collaborative counseling environment so that you can use your strengths as a spring board to help achieve healing and growth.
In order for a broken bone to heal itself, it needs a secure container (a cast or brace). Likewise, in order for people to heal and grow in desired ways, they often need a secure container in which to accomplish this. I strive to provide that container for my clients by providing a strong therapeutic alliance and a soothing, safe office environment. Whether you want to make small adjustments in yourself or work to heal deep-seated issues that have resulted from difficult life experiences, I would like to help you achieve your goals.
