Beginning counseling for the first time can be frightening. The journey to emotional health takes courage. Sometimes you don't realize your own strength until you come face to face with your greatest challenges. Owning our own story and loving ourselves through that process is one of the bravest things that you will ever do. Your courageous journey in counseling is a way to reach personal goals, reduce suffering, and get more joy out of life. We have an unlimited capacity to heal ourselves, despite the pain we've suffered. I create an emotionally safe, non-judgmental, and caring environment for children, adults, and families to share their concerns and increase self-awareness. I provide a relaxed, laid back atmosphere, humor-filled, and a gentle, yet straight forward approach. A relationship of trust is essential to a successful therapeutic experience. By working together with you, I hope I can help you on your path of inspiration, hope, and healing.
