I am a high school counselor and former teacher. I naturally love working with kids of all ages. I believe in the power of healing and that people can act as conduits through authentic relationships. These relationships are key in therapeutic settings and promote an improved sense of self. I view counseling as a mutual process wherein the counselor and client identify unwanted patterns of behavior, thoughts, and emotions that hinder the client from flourishing as an individual, in relationship to others, and as a member of society.
