I've practiced in mental health for more than 15 years and I still have the same passion I did when I started. I trust that part of the reason that I remain committed to this work is because I practice what I preach. I constantly have to remind myself that I can do hard things and I wake up every day manifesting my purpose. The most rewarding part of my job is watching you grow into the person you've set out to be. I pride myself on true social work values; which include integrity, ethical practices, and quality services. I have specialized certification and training in trauma and a long work history in family systems therapy.Here at "The Balance Within Counseling and Consulting" I offer Individual, Group, and Family Therapy. My focus is family preservation, however, I do handle more specific needs such as depression, anxiety, extensive trauma care, ADHD, systems work, behavioral concerns, and women's/men's health.Trust the process and remember that life is a journey, we get to decide our own path!
