Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Last Updated 30+ days ago

With a compassionate approach, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and concerns via Telehealth. I am committed to helping clients navigate everyday life struggles to find a path towards empowerment and growth. Gentle Note: I am a firm believer of upholding boundaries and clear communication, thus I maintain the no show and cancellation fees as signed in the intake form. Although 24hr cancellation is highly appreciated, I understand emergencies happen and am willing to work with clients that communicate these concerns as soon as possible. “As soon as possible” is deemed within 3-5 hours of the missed session time prior to completion of all practice billing at the end of business day. Rescheduling and waived fees can be considered if client communicates within the aforementioned time window.

I do not provide services to clients who are actively suicidal, homocidal, and exhibit self harming behaviors as high risk clients cannot ethically be accepted for treatment via telehealth. I encourage all prospective clients struggling with these concerns to please contact a provider that specializes in these concerns. I also do not provide assistance with custody issues.

A demographic that I hold near and dear to my heart are women experiencing emotional distress due to reproductive health challenges and young adults identifying as LGBTQIA+. I aim to foster a supportive, warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental atmosphere. If you are seeking professional guidance and support to address issues with: boundary setting, interpersonal relationships, communication, effective coping, body positivity, and self-esteem, I am here to assist you on your path to emotional wellness and self-discovery.
