With a strong commitment to a sense of community and a passion for service, I am dedicated to creating an inclusive, affirming space where individuals from all walks of life can experience meaningful growth and healing through effective counseling.
​
My journey toward the mental health profession began in childhood, inspired by my mother’s dedication to social services. Volunteering with organizations like Goodwill Industries, the Child Abuse Prevention Council, and assisted living facilities sparked my passion for helping others and deepened my appreciation for diverse experiences. These early experiences shaped my desire to help individuals issue forth meaningful change in their lives through therapy.
​
Over the past 20 years, I have worked with clients from various backgrounds, gaining a profound understanding of both the educational landscape and the critical role of trust, respect, and unconditional positive regard in the therapeutic process. As a counseling associate, my integrative approach to therapy is rooted in this understanding, ensuring that I provide care that honors each individual's values and identity.

I strive to help clients explore the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behavior. By addressing these areas, therapy offers a path to personal growth, deep healing, and lasting, positive change. I look forward to joining you on this transformative journey!
