I enjoy being authentic and connecting with my patients on a genuine level. I bring the same calm, positive, and empathetic energy to every session, staying true to myself.

My communication style is adaptive, meaning I tailor my approach based on each client’s needs and preferences. Whether it’s offering a more direct, solution-focused dialogue or creating a softer, reflective space for exploration, I adjust my communication to best support the individual or couple I’m working with. This flexibility allows me to meet clients where they are emotional, ensuring they feel understood and comfortable while working toward their goals.

Have you been discouraged by your dire trying to stop something that stresses you out through the bombardment of non-stop racing thoughts, flashbacks or even the act of over thinking situations? Consistently finding yourself trying to get out of a pool of depressive thoughts, anxiety or anger that are chronically affecting you and your family to the point of feeling lost and hopeless. In spite of having the flood of helpful and educational information “out there”, here we are, still STUCK in pain and suffering. The scars of unbearable emotional pain portray itself through our emotional, physical and spiritual health. When we try to “fix” what is outside of us, inevitably, we will continue to be stuck. When we try to look within ourselves; our emotion, thoughts or prejudgments based on our beliefs or assumption, we may challenge ourselves and ask question if what we believe, in fact is true.I hope you are willing to challenge yourself by examining your unquestioned mind. I incorporate Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Informed treatment Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Psychodynamic approach and Christ-centered counseling in my practice.

Be the best version of yourself. Through our partnership, I work with you to start living your best life now. 2025 is the year for you to explore, experience, and embrace the BVOY. Becoming the best version of yourself 'BVOY' is within your reach. An awareness that you deserve to live a life filled with purpose and being the BVOY is step one. The next step is unpacking your baggage and identifying, exposing, and working through your stuck points. Stuck points manifest in many ways, such as negative self-talk, self-doubt, self-sabotage, depression, anxiety, anger, stress, unresolved grief and loss, fears, and holding on to past hurts, disappointments, or toxic relationships. The BVOY is within you.

I am a supporter who is dedicated to understanding the human experience and helping individuals achieve positive life changes. I believe in the inherent strength of emotions and view them as opportunities for self-exploration and growth. My approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and meeting individuals where they are on their journey. I strive to create a safe space where clients can explore their feelings, traumas, and challenges without judgment. I employ positive interventions and practices with individuals with a variety of mental and behavioral health diagnoses to support healing and behavioral change. I work with a diverse range of clients, including adults, adolescents aged 14 to 18, and couples. Additionally, my extensive military background brings relatability and a unique perspective to therapy, particularly for service members and their families. One of my guiding principles is captured in the quote: “Unless an individual learns to face their shadows, they will continue to see themselves in others; as the world outside of self is a reflection of the world inside of self.” I look forward to collaborating with you on your journey towards self-discovery, personal growth, and healing.

I am a compassionate and experienced therapist dedicated to supporting individuals (adults and teenagers) through life's challenges. My approach is grounded in empathy, trust, and collaboration. With 10 years of experience in the field of mental health, I work with clients to foster self-awareness, emotional healing, and positive change.

Being a therapist means creating a safe space for individuals to reveal their true selves, leading to healing and growth. Life can be beautiful, and it can be difficult. Therapy provides an opportunity to speak and share our deepest thoughts, saddest moments, and accomplishments so that we might be unburdened and successful in our goals. It is an honor to join with clients for the achievement of their goals, and I value my work as a clinician I have several years of experience providing mental health services, working with assessments, community mental health counseling, and crisis interventions. My experience varies, and it includes services with children and adults. My current office is setup to provide play therapy, group counseling, and traditional talk therapy. I will partner with you to establish goals that are specifically built for your needs, pulling together various theories, strategies, and techniques to assist individuals with depression, anxiety, trauma, difficulty in relationships, and other concerns. I am currently accepting new clients and I look forward to hearing from you!
