About
I help clients of all ages who have very little control over their anger and tend to explode in rages. I’ll help by teaching the difference between aggression and anger, and that anger is natural and ways that it can be expressed appropriately.
I help clients learn to have healthy conflicts instead of damaging argument so they can build stronger relationships with their loved ones, employers, or colleagues by communicating more effectively and reducing the negative emotional impact during and after a heated argument.
My areas of expertise include: depression and/or anxiety, working with family systems, interpersonal trauma, and emotion regulation. I’ll work with your thoughts and behaviors, and use mindfulness skills to learn how you can successfully manage your emotions. We'll work best together if you really want to improve your mood, improve your relationships, or get through difficult times.
It is an honor to work alongside clients wanting to improve their sense of achievement and make themselves feel more positive, relaxed, and happier in their current and/or future relationships.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
It is important to understand what a client is looking for in counseling and what it would mean to them if they could resolve or manage their issues.

I have a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have taken multiple trainings in evidenced based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Stress Reduction.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Be honest with yourself with what you are wanting from counseling. Understand that counselors have training in different theories and should be able to give you an understanding of how their techniques can benefit you. Counseling can be extremely rewarding but it can also be a challenge.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
What is a brief idea of what you are looking for in counseling? What would it mean to you if you were able to get this anxiety under control? How would it make a difference in your life?
