I would describe my therapeutic approach as empathetic, compassionate, non-judgmental, collaborative, and action-oriented. I find that the realization of change is important and that this process will include us working together and being invested in the therapeutic process. My extensive experience in the helping profession allows for a diversity of issues to be addressed. I often add, “Nothing is too big or too small, we will address it all.” From depression, anxiety, trauma, adjustment issues, and many others, we will work to together to achieve change and desired outcomes. I utilize multiple evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, while practicing culturally sensitive care to help my clients heal and grow.

I started my work in this helping profession at a very young age, almost 30 years ago. Through the varying capacities and experiences (direct care, case management, Licensed Professional Counseling) I found enjoyment in helping others achieve their goals.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and staying active through sports.
I exercise and workout daily which supports my own mental and emotional well-being.
I typically recharge through travel and staying active outdoors.
