Sometimes, life becomes overwhelming, whether it's because of a major life change, a tough breakup, difficulties at school, or the overwhelming grief of losing someone you care about. Perhaps you feel trapped in a fog, or you're finding it difficult to explain your emotions and thoughts to others. Maybe you're experiencing depression, anxiety, self-harm, or even thoughts of ending your life. You have been navigate these challenges alone for so long, and now you're looking for help. That’s where I come in.
As a licensed clinical professional counselor, I specialize in helping adolescents and young adults work through these difficult emotions and experiences. My approach is centered on offering a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore what you’re going through and help you find relief.
I believe in empowering you on your path toward restoration and growth, providing the tools and perspective you need to cope and heal. Whether you're seeking hope, understanding, coping skills, or a way to make sense of the chaos, I am here to walk alongside you on that journey. Send me a message or give me a call and let's get you on your way.
