Great to meet you!

I am an LMHC with experience in helping others with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, dually diagnosed, and a variety of other mental health needs. I have a Master’s in Counseling/Community Psychology with a certification in Forensic Mental Health. My work experience includes crisis services, psychiatric Emergency Room, and incarcerated adults.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My goal as a therapist is to meet people where they are at, and together figure out their needs and identify how to obtain a more fulfilling quality of life. I mainly do this through a combination of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy.

What you can expect from our first session

Quality of life is most important to me. I work with clients set and achieve goals to help them be the best versions of themselves.
