About
The Latin meaning of "Inspire" means, "to breathe life to another." Often times we find ourselves "stuck," not being able to move forward in life, careers, relationships, or finding the happiness we are seeking. We try everything we know to try, until we reach out for help. Clients often share it is at that moment of reaching out, that they began to take the steps toward healthy changes, freeing them from the barriers that held them back from living a more fulfilling life. During that first step we can feel vulnerable, anxious, scared or even hopeless. It is then we need to have someone we can trust, to have our best interest at the forefront, and to work with us to arrive at that better place.
I am a licensed professional counselor and have been practicing in the field for over 20 years providing therapy and support to clients. I have had the pleasure of counseling clients in various phases of life, from children, adolescents and teens, to individuals, couples, and families. It has been a privilege to work with clients and to be a part of the healing, hope and growth that happens in the therapeutic relationship. My goal is to provide a comfortable, safe environment that "inspires" you to explore, heal, grow, and embrace who you were created to be. It has been my experience that increased success comes from an integrated approach, treating the whole person; emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually, and addressing unresolved core issues that hold us back from being our best selves. I invite you to take that first step, and look forward to the opportunity to walk alongside you on your path!
