About

My journey in the world of counseling is driven by a genuine desire to help individuals find their strength amidst challenges. With a background deeply rooted in trauma-informed care and substance use therapy, I aim to provide a space where healing is not just a possibility but a certainty. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), National Certified Counselor (NCC), Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC), and Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP), I bring a multidisciplinary approach to my work, combining my training in mental health, family systems, and addiction recovery to support individuals, couples, and families. I've witnessed the remarkable resilience of individuals in dark moments and believe that with empathetic connection and evidence-based treatment, true transformation is possible. I am committed to walking alongside those who are ready to reclaim their lives and thrive through personalized, empathetic care.
