I have been helping and supporting people long before I acquired my degree in mental health counseling. My career and life experiences has allowed me to work in areas of mental health, learning disabilities, chronic illnesses, childhood as well as young adult issues.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, compassion, and nonjudgmental. My approach combines psychodynamic and cognitive –behavioral counseling. My goal is to support and empower you to address life issues and to help you learn effective coping strategies.
I am excited to have the privilege of working with you!
