Availability: Open to working with clients around their schedules. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor educator, 25 years of mental health and higher education. I help those who are struggling with motivation, anxiety, depression, time management, getting work completed, feeling stressed, relationship struggles, identity concerns, family issues, and dealing with transitions. I use Wellness Counseling Strategies to help clients identify their own goals for treatment and help clients succeed in all areas of their lives. I look forward to working with you.
I have over 10 years of experience in a wide variety of clinical settings since obtaining my Master's degree and becoming a licensed clinician. I use a client centered approach that draws from my training in cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, dialectical behavioral therapy, exposure and response prevention, and a trauma-informed approach. I have worked with people struggling with addictions, a wide variety of anxiety related difficulties, ADHD, depression, and some bodily focused repetitive behaviors. I also have experience working with couples to address relationship needs.
With over a decade of experience, I offer tailored therapy for diverse challenges: Disruptive Behavior, Parental Stress, LGBTQIA Support, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Relationships, Grief, Life Transitions, BIPOC Concerns, and Personal Growth. I use a holistic approach integrating Trauma-Informed Care, CBT, and Behavior Therapy. Let's work towards healing and growth together!
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified EMDR Therapist, I have over 14 years of experience with the VA treating trauma, anxiety, phobias, attachment wounds, depression and navigating life and career changes.
I specialize in supporting adults with depression, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms, whether from life transitions, relationships, aging, or other challenges. I also have a special focus on women during pregnancy and postpartum. I offer practical, compassionate ways to ease overwhelming thoughts and nurture inner peace.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to providing a safe, supportive, and clinically grounded environment for individuals and families navigating life’s most difficult challenges. Since earning my Master’s Degree in Social Work in 2004, I have spent over 15 years helping people move from places of uncertainty and pain toward clarity, resilience, and confidence.
I strongly believe that everyone deserves to feel validated and to have their story truly heard. I understand—both personally and professionally—how essential it is to have a safe space where you are taken seriously in order to create meaningful movement and change in your life. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, working with individuals and families in both therapeutic and life coaching settings. Throughout my career, I’ve supported clients of diverse ages, backgrounds, and diagnoses, and I bring that depth of experience into every session.
You don’t have to face the same thoughts, emotions, or challenges alone. Change is possible, and therapy can provide the tools and support to help you move forward with confidence. With eight years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I work with children, teens, and adults to navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and life’s hurdles. As a Certified ADHD Clinical Specialist, I offer focused expertise while creating a warm, understanding space where you can feel heard, supported, and empowered.
Mental health is just as important as physical health, yet we often neglect it due to stigma or the fear of being perceived as "crazy." I am here to guide you through the challenges you face in life, providing support during both the ups and downs. Together, we can develop a personalized treatment plan that supports your mental and emotional well-being.
Finding the right therapist can feel like a leap of faith — especially when you've spent years wondering if anyone will truly get you. Whether you're navigating identity, relationships, life transitions, or carrying weight you've never said out loud, you deserve a space where you don't have to explain yourself from the beginning. That matters here. You are not too much. You are not too complicated. And you don't have to perform wellness to be worthy of support.
