Congratulations on your courage in beginning your wellness journey! Whether you are looking to begin therapy for the first time or you've had experiences with mental health services before, I am here to ensure we get started on the right path to reaching your goals. I’m a down-to-earth relationships/communication/boundaries enthusiast committed to helping men and women learn how to improve their quality of life by overcoming fears, understanding their desires, and acknowledging barriers and strengths that impact wellness. My work focuses on targeting ineffective belief systems, understanding origins of maladaptive behaviors, and utilizing various tools to obtain new ideas and approaches to life's challenges. I’m passionate about challenging clients in a safe environment to expand their comfort zone. We will discuss some hard things at some point, but we will laugh hard, too. I sometimes use the enneagram as a tool for self-awareness, reducing shame, and increasing self-love. I encourage you to try 3 sessions with me while we build rapport and determine if we are a good fit for each other. If not, I will happily assist in a smooth transfer of services to another clinician who can better suit your needs. “It ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done!” – Rocky Balboa
