“There is no such thing as an Ordinary Person.” - C.S. Lewis
A therapeutic Experience as Unique as You
My Approach
Welcome! As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC 21784), I employ a variety of modalities tailored to each individual, couple, or family. As each individual is unique, so should be the therapeutic process. My philosophy is that the client is the hero on their own journey, and I am there to assist them in reaching their goals and full potential.
