Who Am I?
I hold a Master’s Degree from Wheaton College. As a mental health counselor, I thrive when presented with clients that need helpful insight into the challenges they face. Whether someone has a mental illness, difficult family dynamics, struggling relationships, or are needing to learn how to better communicate with a boss or partner, I can teach them effective strategies to improve their lives. If an individual is facing a huge loss or needs new direction, I can walk with them through the grief process or decision making. I believe all of us are trying the best we can to perform at our highest level. However, we are also all prone to fall into negative traps that make it difficult to see a clear way out of being stuck or feeling down. This is when we all need some help from someone who has the wisdom and experience to help guide us through this maze, called life.
