Self Scheduling
I have a deep respect for the courage it takes to begin therapy, and I strive to meet each patient with empathy, understanding, and a willingness to explore what truly matters to them. I seek to align theory with the needs of my patients. This often means that I may draw from tenets of a number of types of therapy for a productive experience for my patients. An example would be to blend a person-centered approach in encouraging ownership combined with more directive techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy.
Patients often tell me they feel heard, challenged, and genuinely supported in our work. Many have walked away with stronger communication skills, a clearer sense of boundaries, and a renewed perspective on themselves and their relationships. Whether you’re facing addiction, emotional stress, or a desire for deeper change, I’ll meet you where you are and walk with you toward something better.
Credentials
Education
Master of Arts in Professional Counseling, Amberton University, 2019
Personal Interests
I enjoy picking up skills. These days I enjoy a bit of welding, especially when I have time to create something vs having to fix something. But it goes deeper than that. When I take time to make something with my old stick welder, I revisit good memories of a couple of guys who poured into my life.
Positions
I myself am a veteran and former firefighter/paramedic and have a personal, informed perspective of these communities.
