Do you struggle with feeling stuck? Are you unable to move forward, yet feel uncomfortable standing
still? This can be painful, and it is common to experience negative self-talk and self-doubt in these
instances. These may be symptoms of your current circumstances, or perhaps these feelings are shaped
by previous lived experiences. No matter the cause, we can all use support.

I believe that changing the way we think and feel about ourselves is the key to changing how we interact
with others and the world. Positive self-talk, gratitude, and grounding skills are the hallmarks in this
journey. My goal is to help you feel empowered to identify your own goals and how to accomplish them.

My job is to be a kind, authentic guide for you on this journey. As a licensed mental health counselor
who has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I have worked with many individuals (18+)
struggling with negative patterns, stress, and trauma. My passion is helping individuals get unstuck. If
you are looking for someone to offer an experienced and empathetic ear, then we may be a great fit!
