About Me
I’m a mental health counselor with a strong interest in trauma-informed care and integrative approaches to healing. With a background in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds through a range of emotional and life challenges. My work is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and a belief in each person’s capacity for growth and resilience. I’m especially drawn to EMDR because of its transformative impact in helping people process and release pain that’s been holding them back. My goal is always to create a safe, affirming space where clients feel heard, empowered, and hopeful about their journey forward.
