I love to help people improve their current quality of life by diving into the past to settle any unfinished business. I have been in your shoes as a person seeking mental health services and can empathize with how difficult that can be. I am equipped in creating a safe and comfortable environment for people of all different backgrounds and orientations . I have experience working in corrections and outpatient therapy and have worked with teenagers, adolescents, and older adults. My goal for all my clients is to help them expand their “toolbelts” to better be able to cope with all of life’s stressors. Using Gestalt and Cognitive Behavioral counseling models, I aim to empower my clients to direct their own therapy sessions. In our sessions, we will work collaboratively together to find solutions to the problems that prevent you from reaching your best potential.
