Welcome! My love for psychology and counseling derived from my thoughts on the power of change, self-awareness, and building healthy connections with self and others in our lives; the art(s) of healing; and my passion for assisting individuals in personal growth to become one’s highest potential self. I am devoted to assisting client’s to overcome past traumatic experiences, present triggers creating daily life challenges, and build healthy future alternatives. I value the ability to develop strong professional relationships with clients, desire to understand each individual’s emotional process, in order to create personalized plans for healing.
I have obtained my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I practice using a combination of Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioral, and Attachment theories. I use a more directive and person-centered approach focusing on the client and their individual wants and needs. I practice EMDR, advanced trauma, and psychotherapy with individuals, couples, and families.
I specialize in teenage & young adult mental health, self-esteem and confidence building, overcoming trauma, an array of mental health diagnoses, and overall improvement of healthy, holistic well-being. Furthermore, I practice with proficiency in adult counseling emphasizing but not limited to an array of mental health diagnoses, addiction, relapse prevention, trauma, criminal behavior, marriage, and family therapy.
