Intern
My ideal client is a child, adolescent, or young adult (ages 20–30) navigating the challenges of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and significant life transitions. They may feel overwhelmed by school, work, or relationships, unsure of their purpose, or burdened by past experiences. These individuals often struggle to see their worth or believe in their ability to create positive change in their lives. Their goals include building self-confidence, gaining clarity about their values and goals, and creating actionable plans to move forward. They are seeking a safe, supportive space to heal holistically—addressing their mind, body, and spirit—and learning tools to navigate life with resilience and self-compassion. They desire not just to survive but to thrive, developing a sense of purpose, inner peace, and joy in their daily lives.
As a past teacher and inspiring counselor, I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and the difficulties of life transitions. I bring a compassionate and strengths-based approach, tailored to each client’s unique journey. I help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and cultivate self-awareness. I also integrate holistic methods that connect the mind, body, and spirit, such as grounding techniques, breathing exercises, and values-based exploration, to foster a deeper sense of balance and well-being.
In our sessions, I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their challenges, develop confidence, and rediscover their potential. Together, we’ll set actionable goals and work step-by-step to create meaningful and lasting change. Whether it’s building resilience, navigating emotional pain, or preparing for a major transition, I offer practical tools, encouragement, and guidance to help clients feel empowered and ready to thrive. My ultimate goal is to help clients not only heal but also unlock the strength within themselves to lead fulfilling, purposeful lives.
I want my clients to know that I truly understand how overwhelming life can feel at times. I’ve witnessed the courage it takes to ask for help and the strength it takes to start making changes, no matter how small. I approach every session with warmth, empathy, and a genuine desire to see you succeed—not just in achieving your goals but in finding peace and fulfillment in your life.
I believe that everyone has the capacity to heal and grow, even when things seem at their darkest. I’m here to walk beside you, at your pace, helping you navigate the challenges you face while celebrating every step of progress along the way. You don’t have to have everything figured out; all you need is a willingness to take that first step.
