GET TO KNOW ME

caring. dedicated. real.

To be human is to struggle. Navigating through hardships may be difficult, but made easier through support.

 

I’ve been working as a Licensed Counseling Professional in Idaho who specializes in helping people cope with their challenges. I acquired a Bachelor's Degree in Human Services and a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Continued education is important to my continued growth in how I service my clients.

​

I grew up in Virginia Beach enjoying the simple pleasures of nature, art, and music. Creativity are integral to my identity and happiness. During my enlistment in the military as an Air Traffic Controller, I met my husband, whom I have two sons with. Thereafter, we moved up to Idaho to be close to family and set up roots. I subsequently pursued the helping profession to impact my community in a positive way. I found a passion in helping others with their challenges using experiences of roadblocks I personally grappled with. I am motivated to help others find stability within their lives through autonomy.

​

As a therapist, I am warm, direct, transparent, and hard-working. I utilize CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, and Humanistic Therapeutic Approaches. While I would love to work with everyone, I feel it is important to have a good fit, while also considering whether that the challenges match the  specialties I practice. 

 

If you have any questions about my methods, or would like to schedule a consultation, please get in touch today.
