What Thriving means to me

Sometimes, the challenges we face become so hard to manage that the life we want to live seems far away or impossible. This can feel limiting, stressful, and discouraging. In my eyes, thriving has to do with growth towards our goals and a life that feels connected. Thriving does not mean that things are always all good or all bad, but that when the storm comes, we are able to weather it without compromising our goals and values. I believe that thriving also has to do connecting to others in our lives generating feelings of belonging and strength.

About My
Areas of Focus

Anxiety, family conflict, stress, behavior change, trauma, faith based counseling, gender affirming care. Overall, I love working with multiple people in therapy for a variety of issues related to phase of life and mental health difficulties.

Why I love what I do

There is a lot of hurt in our world and difficulties that people face. There is nothing to be ashamed of for struggling! It is part of being a person to struggle. So, I love having the chance to connect and help those who are struggling to move back towards the life that they want to live. There is
something special about seeing people’s lives change and to be a part of that process.

For Fun!

I love walking my dog, listening to music, watching the latest TV shows, and I also enjoy some creative expression like painting and pottery. A fun fact is that I have two crested geckos named Mango and Bean.
