Bio
Life can be full of challenges, and having someone really listen can be instrumental in successfully navigating through trying times. I believe people can be successful when they feel they are heard and they feel they belong. As we journey through the counseling process, I promise to go at your pace, and treat you as the expert of your own life
My goal as a counselor is to provide my clients with a place that is safe and non-judgmental as you journey into the deep places of your heart and mind. I will be here with you as you explore these sacred spaces. My passion is for working with young adults and adolescents, and their families. Through my counseling work I hope to help people:
Navigate life, transitions, school
Identify/develop lasting skills and coping strategies
Find their voice and communicate their desires/needs
As a school counselor, I have experience supporting challenges such as:
Peer interactions and conflicts
School success strategies
Teacher-student communication
Future planning
Academic accommodations
I believe in a strength-based, person-centered approach to counseling. I achieve this through compassion, respect, positive relationship development, and creativity in sessions. I use developmentally appropriate interventions and techniques to foster personal growth through Sand Tray Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT).
