As a counselor, I believe that you are the expert in your own experiences. I believe that our lived experiences teach us about the life that we want to curate for ourselves and that all people have a purpose. I believe that people are in search of finding themselves in one way or another during different seasons of their lives.
As your counselor, my approach is to assist you in this season by asking you questions to help you discover or rediscover your purpose in an empathetic and curious way. We co-create an environment of exploration by finding ways to encourage authenticity to enter our space while exploring root causes of learned behaviors and decisions in an environment of care and compassion. During our process, we can also do work to untether you from patterns that have not served you in the past as you work towards a redefined future. This work is done by gently challenging these patterns, and providing direct feedback to you in the process. I also strongly believe in the practices of empowerment, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-informed mindfulness practices as we go on this journey of discovery.
I have experience working with people from all walks of life, and I really enjoy doing work with people who are first-time clients, or who have concerns with Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment, Trauma, Relationships, Divorce, Non Traditional Relationships, Spirituality/Religion, Self Esteem/Self Compassion work, Identity Development, and Adjustment Issues.
I received my education in Counseling and have worked in Colleges and Universities for over a decade doing interpersonal violence advocacy, case management, and mental health crisis care. Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time with my Husband and our fur baby Ella, laughing, cooking, dabbling in the creative arts, and serving in Ministry.
I am so excited about the work that we can do together! I see clients online through our HIPAA compliant Telehealth platform. To schedule with me or to learn more about my services please complete the inquiry formand our Intake Coordinator will get back to you shortly.
