As a counselor, I believe the road to a better you starts with building a respectful and meaningful relationship with my clients. I feel the client is their own expert when it comes to their life. This is why the client is the guiding force in their mental health happiness. In order for happiness to be achieved, the client and counselor must work together. I provide an empathetic, caring and respectful environment that allows the client a safe place to start their positive mental health journey. I work primarily with adolescents and adults. As a veteran of the US Army, I understand the issues that our military faces while serving as well as after leaving service. I also am well versed in issues that the LGBTQIA+ community face. Some (but not all) of the mental health issues that I help with are domestic violence issues, PTSD, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, bipolar and others. I utilize several different approaches from a variety of therapeutic methods in order to provide the best mental health care for my clients. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me in order to begin your path to a more positive mental health future.
