I’m a licensed professional counselor and ecotherapist committed to supporting individuals in their pursuit of healing, hope and happiness. My work focuses on self reflection, mindfulness practices and building confidence. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals. I am passionate about combining my counseling skills with the innate healing power of the outdoors to support overall wellbeing and wholehearted living in clients that I work with.

I did not choose the career of counseling. It chose me. At the age of 13, I was going through anxiety and depression. I had no idea of how to navigate through life or how to handle my emotions. It was through the guidance of my middle school guidance counselor Donna Clark that I was introduced to counseling. 14 years later I followed in her footsteps and became a counselor. I am thankful to her for influencing me in my young life. It is because of her impact on my life that I seek to provide the same level of care and passion for every client I am blessed to work with.  My own personal journey is the basis of my understanding of anxiety and depression and what is necessary to heal from these feelings. Through studying the roots of my pain, practicing techniques, and learning to embrace who I am I learned that this direct experience can help me to become a more empathetic counselor.  Although I am skilled in many topics some of my favorite areas to counsel in are how to manage anxiety, depression, BIPOC (black, indigenous, people of color) issues , microagressions, those living with a disability, women issues, work stress, school stress, and grief. In addition, I enjoy working with my clients on goal setting, career planning, and addressing life stressors that comes up for them. I have worked with clients ages 12-65.  Listed below are my qualifications:  -Licensed Professional Counselor  -Tele-therapy Certification  -Grief Therapy Certification  -Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Certification  -American Counseling Association member since 2010  -Experienced Substance Disorder and Emotion Regulation ProvideR
