What would be important for someone to know about working with you?

Working with me means having a space where you can be real—no judgment, no pretense, just honest conversations that help you move forward. I believe that healing and personal growth happen when you feel heard, understood, and supported, so I create a comfortable and down-to-earth environment where you can truly be yourself. I take a practical, no-fluff approach to helping people navigate life’s challenges. I’m not here to just nod and ask, "How does that make you feel?"—I’m here to help you make sense of what’s going on and figure out real, actionable steps to move forward. I blend professional expertise with a warm, relatable style, making sure that our work together feels meaningful and productive, not overwhelming. I also know that life is unpredictable, and sometimes things don’t go as planned. That’s why I stay flexible in my approach, tailoring sessions to your unique needs rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all solution. Whether you’re dealing with a major life transition, emotional struggles, or just trying to figure things out, I’ll meet you where you are and walk with you through the process. At the end of the day, my goal is for you to leave each session feeling a little lighter, a little clearer, and a lot more confident in your ability to handle whatever comes next.

Education

Walden University, Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Clinical Mental Health, 2015

I earned a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, which provided advanced training in psychology, human development, and evidence-based therapeutic techniques. My studies focused on counseling theories, mental health assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning, as well as specialized areas such as trauma, ethics, and multicultural counseling. Through extensive supervised clinical experience, I developed practical skills in working with individuals, couples, and groups. This rigorous education and hands-on training prepared me to become a licensed therapist, equipping me with the expertise to help clients navigate life’s challenges, improve their mental well-being, and foster personal growth.

Work History

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, helping them navigate challenges and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. My experience has been shaped by working with children, teens, and adults in various settings, including schools, foster care programs, community organizations, and outpatient mental health. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a deep understanding of issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, family struggles, and major life transitions. I’ve spent years guiding individuals through some of life’s toughest moments—whether it was a young person struggling with self-esteem, a family working through conflict, or an adult trying to rebuild after a major setback. My background has allowed me to specialize in providing support during times of change, helping people develop coping skills, strengthen their relationships, and find clarity in difficult situations. Through my work, I’ve learned that healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. I tailor my approach to each person’s unique needs, using practical tools, encouragement, and strategies that promote growth and resilience. My goal has always been to create a space where people feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward in their lives with confidence.
