Empowerment Through Therapy

At Breakthrough Counseling, I provide
a trauma-informed, strength-based, and culturally responsive space where you feel supported, respected, and empowered.

I believe in acceptance, inclusion,
and honoring your unique story—
values that guide every part of my work.

Therapy with me is always tailored to
your individual needs, because no two
journeys are the same. I'm here to walk beside you as you reclaim your voice, rediscover
your resilience, and break through.

about me
about me

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who truly loves helping
others. I’m here to create a welcoming space where you feel
deeply seen, heard, and empowered.

For the past 9 years, I’ve supported clients through some of
life’s toughest challenges, and I’m continually inspired by the breakthroughs that unfold in our work together.

I bring warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor to every session. Clients often tell me they feel safe showing up as their full selves—even when part of our work is discovering who that authentic self truly is and learning to love that person wholeheartedly.

My style is collaborative and down-to-earth. I’m not here to give
you all the answers, but to help you explore and uncover your own. I’ll offer guidance, perspective, and encouragement—celebrating
your progress while nurturing your healing and growth.

If you’re ready to begin, I’m here for you. I look forward to witnessing your Breakthrough.
