In what ways do your life philosophy and treatment philosophy overlap?

My life's philosophy is to "be mindful, be well, and be whole." In my understanding, to be mindful means to be self-aware; to be well means to be balanced and healthy across all dimensions of life; to be whole means to acknowledge and nurture the interconnectedness of ourselves as human beings--mind, body, soul. My therapeutic treatment philosophy integrates these principles because I want my clients to live their best lives through a deeper and greater comprehension of contentment, gratitude and healing.

Work History

I started my career as a Professional School Counselor at the elementary, middle and high school levels. In 2018, I became independently licensed and began contracting therapy services with virtual schools and other online platforms. Also in 2018, I launched my private practice, The Academic Achievement and Character Education Counseling Agency for children, youth/teens, and young adults. In 2021, the A.A.C.E. Counseling Agency officially became a non-profit entity. Presently, I am a Military and Family Life Counselor and I specialize in working with military-dependent students and their families.
