Guiding You Toward Healing and Growth with Compassionate Counseling

My Jounery

I became a counselor because I have always been passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges and discover their strengths. Through my personal experiences, I learned the importance of having someone who listens without judgment and provides support during difficult times. These experiences inspired me to pursue counseling as a career, allowing me to help others build resilience, improve their well-being, and achieve personal growth. I find great fulfillment in creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore their concerns and work toward positive change.

My Education & Professional Background

I graduated from Walden University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a bachelor’s degree in applied psychology and a minor in Addiction Counseling from Hodges University. With over 10 years of experience counseling and as a school teacher, I have worked with both adults and adolescents, providing compassionate and evidence-based support through various stages of healing and recovery.

My Philosophy & Goals for You

I specialize in addressing anxiety and emotional regulation, depression, relationship challenges, church-related trauma, adolescent issues, and substance abuse. Additionally, I provide sports mental health counseling tailored to help athletes enhance their mental resilience, manage performance anxiety, and improve focus both on and off the field. My approach centers on creating safe, inclusive, and affirming environments for individuals of all gender identities, sexual orientations, races, cultures, and belief systems. I am dedicated to assisting clients in building resilience, developing healthy coping strategies, and reconnecting with their strengths while navigating life’s challenges.
