I am currently working on completing my certification to become a Certified Grief Counselor. I have been working with clients who have experienced grief since starting my licensure hours in 2016. I have a passion for meeting clients where they are in their grief journey and being able to help them hold space for their grief as well as assist them with ongoing healing.

I am able to help you differentiate between situational depression and depression due to physical factors. This is really important because it will determine the different methods that we use during the treatment process. I worked as an assessment counselor for 4 years and had daily practice with diagnosis as well as determining if a referral for potential psychiatric treatment is recommended due to severity of the depression.

There are many kinds of anxiety and because of that, there are different methods that are used to treat them. I have 4 years of experience as an assessment counselor who was required to assess, diagnose, and treat mental health disorders; often-times anxiety. Because of this knowledge, I believe that our treatment will be more targeted because I will be better able to identify which methods to use to help you work through this.

I have a passion for working with clients who have experienced loss because I have experienced it myself.

I have worked as an assessment counselor for 4 years where I would complete assessments, diagnosis, treatment plans, and formulate recommendations for treatment. Outside of depression, I have a large amount of experience with treating anxiety. I help clients acknowledge irrational thinking that triggers anxiety attacks. I help clients create a more rational narrative. I encourage using mindfulness techniques to help build up a tolerance for anxiety and reduce fear.
