I am happy to be able to help people with a broad range of concerns. If you are planning to make a change or are ready to take the next step toward a better and more rewarding and fulfilling life, I am happy to work with you in your commitment to yourself. Counseling and therapy is a commitment to self-care whether it helps you to take off the emotional load, to get on the path toward change, or find more depth and meaning in your life. Having a neutral therapeutic space to explore your inner self, express your true thoughts and feelings, these mental processes allow for deeper understanding and resolution. I welcome you to share what is most salient and relevant to you.
I am a Board Certified Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with training supervision designation (LPCC-S) and certifications in Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH) and Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am dedicated to helping people with a combination of my experience in private practice since 2008, ongoing continuing education and training, and everything I have learned from the many people I have served over the years. I completed my education at John Carroll University in 2008. I had always been passionate about working with people to find peace with their pasts and improve their lives.
I am able to help with most concerns at my solo private practice where you will find a safe place to share your innermost thoughts and feelings. As you work in the process of counseling, which usually begins with weekly sessions, you may notice how change can sometimes move very fast and at other times may slow down when working through something emotionally difficult. Counseling is a change and growth process through which you can work on those concerns most important to you. You will find the process works best when you can begin to trust yourself. You may begin to gain greater awareness of signals such as dreams, noticing something new, or even physical symptoms that are communicating to you what is important at a particular time. I feel each person's individual process is holy and spiritual on some deeper level and I have a sincere reverence to that process and its wisdom.
