Starting counseling can feel overwhelming, but it’s a step toward positive change, and I'm here to help you through it. My work is centered around helping people who are dealing with challenges like anxiety, stress, relationship issues, or difficult life changes. Many of us go through times when things feel too much to handle alone, and that's where I come in.

Whether you're a teen struggling with school and friendships, a young adult facing life transitions, or someone going through a tough time in your relationships, my approach is simple: I'll listen to you, understand your concerns, and help guide you toward solutions. You don't have to face your challenges on your own.

In our sessions, we’ll work together to figure out what’s standing in your way and develop a plan to help you feel more in control of your life. The goal is for you to feel stronger, more resilient, and able to tackle life's obstacles. Counseling can be a path to building confidence, improving relationships, and creating the life you want for yourself.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can be heard and supported in making positive changes. Together, we’ll work toward a life that brings you the happiness and peace you deserve.
