About

You are the expert on your life and your story. My goal is to provide a safe, judgement free environment where you can share and explore your narratives. Therapy can empower you to access and mobilize your natural and inherent strengths. When you are ready, I can provide encouragement and support as you plan, develop, & write the next chapters in your story. My goal is to offer a genuinely neutral, comfortable, and supportive space. Modern culture often imposes many unrealistic and unattainable standards. I strive to provide an environment void of the extraneous burdens that exist in our world today. I meet clients where they are I have over 26 years of experience as a professional counselor. I have been blessed by the opportunity to serve clients in the agency, school, and private practice setting. I have a vast array of experiences with clients from varying ages, backgrounds, and diverse demographic groups. I also offer ADHD evaluations for ages 6- Adult and Adult Autism evaluations. Credentials & Experience: I have over 27 years of experience in helping children and families. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Nationally Certified Counselor & School Counselor. I am also an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider.
