I am a master's level clinical counselor with a passion for mental health resilience. It is my sincere belief that, with practice, we can experience contentment in our lives despite the sometimes difficult circumstances that we may be facing.
People are creatures that need their time in nature, their "Vitamin N." In wild places, we find balance, joy and physical and emotional renewal.
No man is an island. We all need friends, especially those who accept us for who we really are.
Sometimes people get stuck along the journey of life and need assistance. I work with all kinds of people -- children, teens and adults -- in order to help them gain awareness about their challenges and support them in working toward solutions.
I have knowledge and experience with....
-challenges such as parenting children with a development delay or learning disability
-emotional regulation problems
-chemical and process addictions
-life changes such as job loss, divorce and the death of a loved one
