11 years in practice

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and have experience working with adolescents, college students, adults, and families.

I feel comfortable saying that most people can benefit from therapy whether they are experiencing difficulties or transitions. If a person has never seen a therapist, I certainly understand that taking the first step can be a little frightening. My goal as a therapist is to relieve that fear and help clients discover that investing in themselves can be rewarding. I am passionate about empowering clients to make their desired change.
