I believe that inside of everyone is a fire; a source of resilience that is sparked by the authentic
self, the version of you that reigns true and unfeigned. To embody this self, it takes work,
commitment, and determination. The reward for your effort is profound. To exist in this world
being authentically you is a gift and a source of strength that can help you to reach your unique
potential, find a sense of internal harmony, and cultivate a genuine self-compassion for all that
makes you, YOU.
My goal as your therapist is to empower and support you in discovering your authentic self. Together, we can courageously prevail over the obstacles that stand in the way of your personal freedom, facilitate growth in areas you wish to make changes in, and unlock unwavering authenticity in your life. As your therapist, I will focus on harnessing your resolve by providing a space that is imbued with compassion, while empathetically challenging you to embody the
essence of your true self.
You have already taken the first step on the path to change by being on this page, and I commend you for that! This path is the one less traveled, and it can be difficult, confusing, and even grueling at times. But on this path is where you discover who you really are. I will be by your side, helping you embrace discomfort and empowering your will to thrive.
A little about me: I completed my undergraduate work in psychology from Warner Pacific University in Portland, Oregon where I recently moved from a little over three years ago. I recently completed my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling at Aquinas College. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor adventures like skydiving, cliff jumping, whitewater rafting, hiking, kayaking, and exploring all that nature has to offer with my partner and my pooches Louis and Wren. I also love to read and write, so you may find me indulging in a book or writing short stories to feed the creative side of my soul.
