About

Welcome to my profile. My 21 years being an educator has prepared me to serve in the capacity of a Professional Counselor. One of the reasons are the many years of working/displaying compassion for those with emotional/behavioral challenges. I have been able to transition my skills into counseling adults. I have a passion in helping people realize their possibilities, even when life says different. My work addresses the whole person; not fragments. Additionally, I believe the individual learns how to become more connected to themselves and their community, by learning their cognitive, emotional, and behavioral negative patterns. I can help people realize their cognitive distortions that has contributed to them becoming "stuck". I am a person who is willing to go the long haul with my clients and instill unconditional positive regard towards their challenges. Finally, I will provide support and a safe space for a person taking the risk of the journey of self-exploration.
