Accepting clients
Updated 15 days ago

I work with clients to live their lives with renewed strength and purpose.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate. I graduated Walden University with a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in Crisis and Trauma. I am a United States Army Veteran where I spent a good part of my service dedicated to supporting military personnel experiencing trauma and crises. I pride myself in my ability to build relationships with clients that will facilitate an environment of safety and trust. I believe anyone who asks for assistance has shown their ability and strength to work through any situation. I utilize Person-Centered Therapy, techniques found in Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), and Trauma-Informed Therapy to facilitate a pathway to healing and prosperity for clients. I work with individuals and facilitate groups, by walking side by side with them on their journey to heal, grow and thrive in life. I enjoy working with individuals on life skills, managing anxiety, grief and depression, and supporting clients with various trauma.
