“We Generate Fears while we sit. We overcome them by Action.” – Dr. Henry Link. At times, life can become overwhelming, and we all can benefit from additional help. My goal is to provide a place to start. I strive to create a safe, open environment, offering talk therapy that is solution focused, and starts wherever the client is in their journey. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, with experience in both mental health and substance use disorder treatment. My practice approach includes cognitive behavioral therapy and a client centered approach. In this current climate I believe having someone to speak to is needed. Whether it's with the pandemic, or finding a balance between work at home, remote learning, and family. We all need support during these trying times.

The sessions, letting someone express themselves, whether it is 45 minutes of them just venting about their day, I give them the opportunity to fully express themselves in a nonjudgmental atmosphere.
I have always had a desire to help others, working at a bank when I was younger I felt I was making a difference in someone's life by helping them with their loans. I decided to go back to school for mental health counseling and got an internship in a substance dependence detox and just knew helping others was what i wanted to do with my life.
I worked at Beacon Health Options for the past 5 years, while doing private practice part time and recently left Beacon to fully dive into my passion of counseling full-time.
