Come, tell me everything and I will listen with an open heart. Sometimes our inner voice is not loving, and life is too short to have our inner voice not be our best friend. You deserve to have a beautiful life so together let’s figure out what’s holding you back. A favorite quote of mine by Heraclitus is: “No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man.” An ancient phrase of wisdom that speaks incredible truth. It is my intention to affect those living and coping with often self-imposed restrictions or images of themselves. I will redirect, refocus and reframe negative feelings and internal dialogue that hold you back from uplifting mental health and helpful contributions to society. Our world is in a state of constant change and although ‘change is the only constant’, change is one of the hardest things to cope with. As a Counselor, my focus is to address those unconscious assumptions that hold you back from living fully so that you can live completely in the moments that go so quick. I have over 25 years of experience with individuals, couples, families, and college students. I hope to companion you on your journey as you discover awareness, clarity, meaning and improved mental health. My practice is about YOU, what your concerns are, how you wish your life to be different. I will meet you where you are, and together, we will build a trusting, transformative working relationship. You will walk me through your past and together, we will walk into the future. I am available for both in-person and virtual appointments.
