I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with more than 10 years of experience counseling individuals, couples, and families. My specialty is treating individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, and interpersonal relationship issues due to trauma.
I strive to provide a safe, warm, and welcoming space as you begin your journey toward healing, hope, and restoration. I endeavor to give a felt sense of safety in our work together. I will empower you to know that you matter; your voice is heard and seen.
