As a dedicated mental health counselor, I help people of all ages face life’s challenges and find healing. I use play therapy to support children, teens, and young adults in a safe space where they can share their emotions. At New Horizons Counseling and Wellness, I value mental health for everyone. I provide personalized support for children, teens, and adults. By creating a safe and understanding environment, I empower clients to explore their thoughts, develop coping skills, and build resilience. My approach ensures that every client gets the help they need to succeed at any age.

Throughout my career, I have successfully guided clients through struggles with anxiety, depression, and self-image issues, empowering them to cultivate resilience and self-compassion. I believe in the power of therapy to foster personal growth and bring about positive changes, no matter the season of life my clients may find themselves in.

My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health. By creating a warm and non-judgmental therapeutic environment, I strive to help individuals uncover their strengths, develop coping strategies, and embark on a journey towards emotional well-being and fulfillment.

In every session, I aim to blend evidence-based practices with creativity and intuition, tailoring my interventions to meet the unique needs and goals of each client. Whether you’re seeking support for your child, teen, or yourself, I am here to walk alongside you on the path to self-discovery, growth, and lasting change.
