Who I Am

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who offers hope and possibility.  I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space for you to safely explore emotional pain and find healing.  I am trained in many therapeutic techniques that easily relieve immediate symptoms.

I believe that body, mind, emotions and spirit are equal components of the healing process.  I work collaboratively with you to help you change the underlying beliefs and patterns that have kept you feeling limited and unable to achieve your goals.  I am dedicated to helping free you from unhealthy life patterns.  I am committed to your living an empowered life.
