Licensed Professional Counselor

My ideal client is someone who has experienced trauma, dysfunctional relationships or other difficulty and is motivated to improve their abilities to be successful through improving their sense of processing their past, improving their communication skills and setting healthy boundaries.

I have worked with clients who have experienced abuse and/or neglect and many have spent time as a ward of the state. I can listen as a client processes their experience, and can help a client envision a future that is filled with hope for a life with successful relationships and work experience. I believe my best work is done when a client learns techniques from me that help them manage their thoughts and emotions so that they are confident in themselves.

I chose a career in mental health due to personal experiences that required a great deal of learning and growth of my own. In those times I realized that healthy relationships and lives do not necessarily just happen, they take work. I want to help others know how to do the work and grow in their own lives so that they can have the best life possible.
