Supportive stabilizing sessions. For when it seems like things are stressful, more difficult, or suddenly feeling different and you're not sure where to start. Or, you simply know it’s time to start seeking help.

Maintain stability and routine. Keeping a lifestyle that supports your wellbeing can take practice while implementing what you have found works best for you to cope and thrive. 

Depth healing is possible. Through addressing painful hurts, loss, trauma, complex health circumstance, and diverse difficult symptoms. These often need gentle and persistent attention with effective care. 

You are worth the time to work on your relationship with your inner-self, others, the outer world, and seek transformative change through consistent purposeful discovering.

There are many reasons to seek brevity in care such as initial efforts toward restoring daily functioning, decision making in life-timing, short-term goals, and financial limitations. We will discuss your individual needs and expectations for care. Many begin the counseling process with this in mind, and their long-term goals can evolve to further address underlying contributing challenges.


There are many reasons to seek long-term care in addition to the initial efforts toward restoring daily functioning. Some patterns, internal processes, and external experiences are ongoing and were not formed overnight. This is an opportunity for ongoing restoration, development, and creative change within yourself. We will discuss your individual needs and expectations for care with ongoing assessment to ensure your investment is worthwhile for your wellness.

Counseling and Therapy as Treatment 

What's holding you back, getting you down, out of balance?

I aim to reduce stigma and normalize accessing care for mental health disorders. Yet, find nonpathological perspectives are integral to support innate healing. I find distressing experiences can also bring resilience, empowerment, and strength, but addressing the hard parts is usually necessary to get there. ​ Below are several examples of my experience in treatment and support. Each person is unique and assessment is necessary to ensure I can be the best fit for you.
