In life, we all experience challenges. Sometimes, we just need extra support and someone to guide us through it all. If you are experiencing anxiety, fears, anger, depression, loss of a loved one, any life stressors, therapy can be the next step in your life to help you heal and grow.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I am here to provide you with the empathy, guidance, and validation that you're seeking for. I allow you the freedom and safe space to have a "voice" to express your inner thoughts and feelings. I believe that you have the power and ability to create the positive choices and meaning that you want in your life.
