DMFT, LMFT, LPC, LAT

As a mental health and couples counselor, I am committed to inspiring individuals and couples to develop new approaches and solutions to reach their goals.

My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, habits, and beliefs in your life to support growth, specifically as they relate to mental health and substance use disorders. I believe in taking a collaborative approach in session, as I work from the mindset that we know ourselves best.

I am passionate about guiding individuals in uncovering the tools necessary to enhance their lives.

As a licensed professional counselor, marriage and family therapist, and licensed addiction therapist, I'm trained in various forms of counseling to meet the needs of you and your loved ones.

As a substance use counselor, I am committed to motivating individuals in developing fresh approaches and solutions with the focus of reaching healthy and productive goals.

My work focuses on helping those individuals to change persistent life habits that have resulted in negative consequences.

I prefer - but am not limited to - a motivational and solution focused approach that enhances an individual’s growth in changing behavior that stimulates positive reinforcement in maintaining positive change substance free.
