"Growth begins when you release the habits that no longer serve you."

With over 15 years of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I’ve had the honor of working with individuals from all walks of life—across socioeconomic, cultural, and diagnostic backgrounds. My career began in an inner-city clinic supporting clients battling IV heroin addiction, and I often say it was these courageous individuals who trained me. They taught me how to sit with profound trauma, to understand the struggle of doing what we don’t want to do—and being unable to do what we long to.

I am passionate about helping individuals reconnect with their authentic selves, gain self-awareness, and build the tools needed to navigate life’s challenges. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative, ensuring that every client feels heard, understood, and empowered.

Equipped with a Master’s in Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Seminary and specialized training in trauma-informed care, I blend evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with compassionate “parts work” to help you reconnect with your core self. My approach is collaborative: think of me as a guide with a flashlight, helping you uncover the hidden patterns and unmet needs that drive unhelpful behaviors.

I am currently undergoing advanced training in DBT and integrate DBT-informed techniques into my practice. While I am not yet officially certified, I apply evidence-based DBT principles to support clients in emotional regulation, mindfulness, and distress tolerance.

Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, or major life transitions, I am here to help you navigate your journey with compassion and clarity.
