Life presents us with many unexpected challenges that can leave us feeling hurt, lonely, anxious and stressed. Maybe you are struggling with insecurity, uncertainty or a lack of direction. In times of distress, it can be difficult to share with anyone, let alone someone you’ve never met. Building a relationship is the most important step in the counseling process and hinges on empathy, respect and safety within the therapy office. Healing happens when we feel fully accepted while being vulnerable and authentic. This can only be achieved through a strong therapeutic alliance. In this space, you will be welcomed, heard and supported. I tailor the counseling experience to each individual’s unique needs. By incorporating therapeutic activities, creative resources, and thoughtful discussions, I work to help clients gain self-awareness and utilize new skills. Our time in counseling may also include an exploration of your family-of-origin, goals, present habits and emotional struggles. Therapy happens at your pace, based on your needs and feedback. You will be welcomed here!I am passionate about helping individuals grow their confidence, self-acceptance and to utilize inherent gifts to face adversity. I have experience serving children, adolescents, families and young adults. If this resonates with you, I would be honored to work with you!
