About My Clients
My ideal clients are children (10+), teens, adults, and families navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, self-esteem, or identity exploration. I enjoy working with those who are curious about themselves, open to growth, and seeking a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process life’s challenges. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just needing guidance, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, understanding, and practical tools for healing and personal growth.
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate under the supervision of Dr. Phillis Helums, Ph.D., LPC-S, LMFT-S. My clinical experience includes working in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including a substance use treatment center and private practice. I have experience supporting clients through anxiety, adjustment disorders, life transitions, trauma, addiction, and self-esteem issues. I also have training in EMDR and incorporate a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach to help clients feel empowered in their healing process. I tailor therapy to meet each person where they are, using techniques from person-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and safe to explore their experiences. Whether you're facing current challenges or processing past wounds, I’m here to walk alongside you and support meaningful growth.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and compassionate space where all clients feel seen, respected, and valued. I welcome individuals of all identities, expressions, and backgrounds, and I strive to provide support that honors each person’s unique experience. I believe in the importance of social justice, equality, and mental health advocacy. I stand with marginalized communities and support movements like LGBTQ+ rights, Black Lives Matter, and suicide prevention. I am passionate about helping clients feel empowered to live authentically and with self-compassion. My approach is rooted in empathy, openness, and a deep respect for every individual’s journey. Whether you're exploring identity, healing from trauma, or simply looking for someone to walk alongside you, I’m here to support you.
