I believe that effective counseling should give individuals a deeper understanding of who they are, and give space to identify how they want to show up in the world. In our sessions together, we will strengthen your skills, introduce new tools, and build on your confidence within yourself to create opportunities where you can thrive. I aim to provide a collaborative atmosphere that is safe, supportive, and empowering. My approach to counseling comes from a holistic, evidence based approach; While we will address your mental health, we will also shine light on important items such as relationships, physical wellbeing, career, etc, to ensure we are considering all parts of you and your life. It is important to me to encourage all clients to come as they are. Clients I’ve worked with have enjoyed my relatability, that humor is always welcome into our sessions, and how I openly share my humanness. Outside of being a therapist, I find myself enjoying outdoor adventures (especially if it includes animals!), starting art projects, seeking out spooky treasures, or spending time with my cats and loved ones.
