It takes courage and vulnerability to take the initial step to come to counseling. I believe people seek counseling because they want something to be different in their lives, and I believe that the client has the ability to make those changes happen. In the counseling process, clients can be helped to understand themselves better, set personal goals, and be supported in the course of this development. I aspire to meet you wherever you are in your life journey and it is my hope that through our work together you will feel valued, understood, and heard.

Since each person has been uniquely created, I avoid using the same approach to counseling for everyone and instead will modify treatment to meet your specific needs. My approach to treatment is collaborative, and I see it as a chance to create an opportunity for clients to see themselves as experts in their own lives. I am passionate about helping others discover their potential, finding self-efficacy, and empowering clients to direct positive change in their lives. I use a strength-based perspective; building on the strengths of the client and a variety of theories and methods to best fit the client and their needs.
