Offers virtual services only
Therapeutic Focus: Anxiety, ADHD, conflict resolution, crisis intervention, trauma-informed, coping skills, anger management, emotion regulation, relationships, stress, and parenting. Multicultural & LGBTQ+ sensitive.
I am a licensed professional counselor associate under the supervision of Dr. Nidal Pascoe, PsyD, LPC-S. I have a deep passion for helping others and entered the field of counseling to educate and support those who feel hopeless, or just need to find their way. I believe in the transformative power of change and am committed to supporting those who feel stuck. Regardless of how that may look for you, my goal is to educate and empower individuals to understand and navigate their challenges. In difficulty, it’s not always easy to see the root of what’s happening within us. Through counseling, I aim to provide the support needed for personal growth and healing. We will work together to reach your goals, one step at a time.
​
I have a multifaceted background with over 10 years of experience working with families, adults, children, adolescents, legal providers, school administration, and law enforcement. My experiences span from working as a Child Protective Services caseworker, juvenile probation case manager, educator, and school counselor to Licensed Professional Counselor Associate. In each of these roles, I’ve been able to offer support and intervention to people from all walks of life. I have worked to strengthen my clients with the tools and knowledge needed to foster healthy relationships, addressing emotional and psychological needs while helping them navigate day-to-day personal challenges.
​
Through these diverse experiences, I bring a holistic and informed perspective to my counseling practice. You can expect to be seen whole and not as your current struggle. You can expect a welcoming, warm, and compassionate environment that is inclusive when you choose to see me. In our counselor/client relationship, we will work together to build growth and resilience. I strive to support you in discovering all the capabilities that already lie within. I believe in you. Let’s get to work!
