About Me
If you have landed here, I know you or your teen/young adult are hurting and likely feeling powerless to change some major aspects of life. I am a warm, caring person who has 20+ years of professional counseling. I also have real-world experience as a teen from a family split due to divorce. I had to overcome depression, anxiety, and self-esteem issues as a result. This is what inspired me to become a Counselor. It was destiny to turn my past pain into something useful for the next generation.
I specialize, but am not limited to, in helping young people with the following:
-
Social Media Addiction/Management
-
Depression
-
Anxiety
-
Self-Esteem
-
Trauma
-
Organizational & Studying Skills
-
Stress Management
I use a strength-based approach focused on what IS working in your life. I have found great success personally and professionally building from this positive methodology, rather than solely concentrating on the problem.
I cannot wait to meet and help in any way possible. I am confident we will make a great team.
