welcome

I’m glad you’re here. I created Emerald Counseling to provide a space in which your voice is heard since every person has a story worth telling. My goal at Emerald Counseling is that you have the space to discover yourself, feel understood, and move towards healing.

I know counseling can feel overwhelming and reaching out is one of the hardest parts. Whenever you are ready for that step, please reach out to me.

my approach

  • client-centered

    A client-centered approach means that you are the one in the driver’s seat. You are the expert in your own life and my role as a counselor is to be a guide to aid in achieving your therapeutic goals.

  • holistic

    A holistic approach allows for integration of the whole person. This includes focusing on emotional, physical, social, spiritual, and mental health in the counseling process.

  • psychodynamic

    It is important to understand your past since it can affect your present and future. A psychodynamic approach aids in understanding the unconscious/psychological forces that affect your emotions and behaviors.
