I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington State and an Associate Professional Counselor in Georgia, with over a decade of experience providing mental health services. I am also a doctoral student in Counselor Education and Supervision, which allows me to stay grounded in current research and best practices.
I am the owner of Helping Hands Christian Counseling, where I provide individual counseling services to adolescents and adults. My work is rooted in a passion for helping individuals navigate life transitions, heal from past experiences, and develop practical tools for emotional wellness.

I hold a doctoral degree from a progressive Jesuit school as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Prior, I spent over 10 years in one-on-one home healthcare, studied psychology before nursing, and obtained an EMT certification, with a side interest in Fire and Rescue EMS.
In the past, I considered everything from becoming a veterinarian, an acupuncturist, a wildlife biologist, a gypsy with a fishing boat, a journalist, an underwater welder, an astronomer, an anthropologist, and yes, going to medical school. The nursing field, however, is beautifully versatile, and ended up being on point and on time. I'd like to think I weave into my perspective and practice, threads of all of those other fields.
Exploring the internal world is just an integral part of my life. By now, I'm cozy with cross-cultural/philosophical and belief perspectives surrounding existence, growth, difficult symptoms, and medicines. I've worked with myself - no doubt, but personally and professionally, with a lot of other people for whom it's all been front and center.
