Licensed Professional Counselor
Accepting clients Last Updated 15 days ago

Life is one big puzzle, and there are times when we all need help putting the pieces together. Maybe now is your time. You are reading this right now for a reason: you may be feeling down, feeling overwhelmed, or even having trouble feeling anything at all. If any of this sounds familiar, then perhaps it is time for a change. My primary goal as a therapist is to assist you with experiencing and fully enjoying the best that life has to offer.

I am specialized in Motivational Interviewing to gauge your readiness to change, as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, also known as CBT. I also have experience with Mindfulness Meditation, and EMDR trauma treatment. In addition, I am specifically licensed as an alcohol and drug counselor and licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience within the field. And if you have found yourself dealing with anxiety or depression, I can be of service as well.

With my nonjudgmental, multicultural, and positively encouraging approach, we can work together on this journey of rediscovery and recovery in spite of life’s obstacles. YOU are the center and main focus in therapy, and the collaborative approach will successfully assist you to achieve the change you are hoping for. I am also accepting new supervisees in the State of Connecticut looking to obtain licensure as an LADC or LPC.
