I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), as well as a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist Candidate (CSAT Candidate) in Arizona with over 10 years of experience. The majority of my career has been spent with adults with a multitude of presenting issues such as developmental trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship and family issues, PTSD, self-esteem and self-identity issues as well as trauma, substance abuse and other process addictions. I believe the connections we make are critical for positive change. My main focus in therapy is to meet clients where they are with acceptance and non-judgement.
With my experience, I feel I am equipped to help clients heal themselves and their relationships and work through the struggles they face in all areas of their lives. I am here to support you through your journey.
Asking for help can be challenging and feel uncomfortable for many people. I strive to make the experience as comfortable and accepting as possible. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to talk about your reasons for seeking therapy and to begin to explore how I can help you reach your goals.
