About My Clients

Are you a thoughtful, growth-oriented person who’s ready to do deeper work—not just manage symptoms, but understand your patterns, heal old wounds, and build healthier relationships? Are you open to insight, willing to be challenged, and ready to approach yourself with both honesty and compassion as you pursue lasting change? Then we might be the right fit for you!

My Background and Approach

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and founder of Paraklesis Counseling, PLLC. I’m passionate about helping people move beyond surface-level coping to create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is insight-driven and relational, integrating evidence-based practices with a strong focus on patterns, attachment, and emotional processing. I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel both supported and challenged. Drawing from both professional expertise and lived experience, I help clients make more intentional choices in relationships, deepen self-awareness, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe counseling is more than symptom relief—it’s about transformation. I see therapy as a space to slow down, get curious, and understand the deeper patterns that shape how you think, feel, and relate to others. I believe real change happens when insight is paired with intentional action, and when you learn to approach yourself with both honesty and compassion. I value authenticity, personal responsibility, and the courage it takes to face hard things. My role is to guide, challenge, and support you as you do the work to create a life and relationships that align with who you truly are.
