One of my favorite quotes, “Change your thoughts and you can change your world” by Norman Vincent Peale, really inspires me to help clients realize hope for the future. The change comes from you, and we can start that process within the therapy room. Each person is unique in their own way, and because of this, they may need a unique approach to therapy. I look at the therapeutic relationship as a team: we can collaborate together to work on any issues that may be troublesome. You are the ex...

I simply help facilitate this process and support you along the way. There is always hope, and with some time and attention...
I believe that everyone is unique and holds their own wisdom, and that is a good thing. We all have different walks of life that we can share with others and have others share with us. With this said, I believe in creating a mutual relationship of compassion and learning with clients. Therapy should be non-judgmental and understanding of others’ differences while appreciating and empowering one another. I understand that everyone’s experience is unique, and so I meet clients where they are ...
Fortitude: “strength of mind that enables a person to encounter danger or bear pain and adversity with courage.” This courage is something we all carry, but oftentimes the weight of the challenges we face can be too much to carry alone.

I am passionate about empowering others, and I am intentional in my learning and ...

Every person can achieve a sense of empowerment and self-assuredness. To achieve that, I strive to make sure my clients feel heard, validated, and valuable. Also, I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths and overcome that which may be holding them back from being their most authentic and fulfilled selves. I feel honored to hear and be entrusted with the words, thoughts, and feelings of those I provide service to, and I do not take that lightly. I value creating a warm a...
I believe everyone is capable of living the life they dream of— or at least close to it! Each individual is unique and has a subjective reality to guide their behavior and thinking patterns. Once this subjective reality is explored and understood, including the manifestations of the reality and the roots that created it, the individual can challenge and alter it to create a new, more fulfilling experience. Therapy is a space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in an o...
Coming from a spirit of warmth and optimism, I wholeheartedly believe that change is not only possible, but likely. People are resilient, and through the healing (and a little bit of humor…) that happens in the clinical space, clients can experience the growth they’ve been hoping for. I aim to leave clients with a sense that they are in a partnership with someone who is committed to their wellbeing. Throughout the years, my clients have often so generously shared with me reflections like, “...
