About

I specialize in counseling teens, college students, young adults, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and difficult periods of adjustment – like moving, graduation, career changes, or relationship issues. Empower Counseling offers Acceptance Commitment Therapy, a type of cognitive behavioral therapy scientifically proven for anxiety and depression. I am also trained in EMDR, an evidenced-based treatment for trauma that helps to reprocess past experiences that might keep us stuck in present day patterns. I have found that this mix helps clients explore their personal experience and create present day change. I meet each person where they are in their journey, whether you are at the beginning stages of change or a simply want to maintain progress already made. I understand that life is unexpected and challenging and that sometimes extra help is needed during difficult times. I am ready to help you navigate your world and achieve your goals. Deciding to make a change and reach out for help can be a difficult but courageous step. I am here to answer any questions that you may have about the counseling process. I look forward to hearing from you!
