Counseling offers a unique opportunity to look inside ourselves and to look around us. Through counseling we can further consider what it would mean to have greater personal understanding, to heal from past or current wounds, and/or to transform into the person we feel we have yet to become. The counseling relationship offers a space of non-judgment where we get to explore any part of what it means to be a human living in this complex, painful, and beautiful world. Through empathy, authenticity, and sometimes humor, I aim to meet my clients where they are and to act as a co-collaborator, exploring ways to enhance feelings of safety, empowerment, passion, and wellbeing.
My therapeutic approach is highly Person-Centered and draws upon Gestalt and Somatic principles. I often consider the mind and body connection, the nervous system and trauma responses, attachment tendencies, and environmental and societal influences when working with clients. Each client is different and therefore, the tools and techniques I bring into a session will depend on the individual and their goals and preferences.
I graduated with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lenoir-Rhyne University in Asheville in December 2023. I have experience working with children 10 years and older, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I enjoy working with diverse individuals spanning across many ages and am proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming.
