ABOUT US
I practice from a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming perspective, emphasizing that "normal" is subjective and often overrated. Each client is a unique opportunity for me to support their authenticity and help them realize they deserve compassion and acceptance. Together, we'll address what matters most to you, whether it's overcoming fears, navigating social challenges, or learning coping skills. My approach draws from various theoretical orientations, focusing on person-centered care for teens and adults of diverse backgrounds, including individuals with disabilities and LGBTQ+ folks. With a background in nonprofit and community college settings, I am also an accredited financial counselor. I enjoy working with individuals of all ages to process past trauma, current life disruptions or future anxieties. I've supported parents navigating their child's new diagnoses, such as Autism and ADHD, assisted teens with IEPs in transition exploration, and guided college-aged students in life management.
THE PROBLEM
Many people are often unable to obtain mental health services due to lack of insurance and high out of pocket cost.
At The On Earth Counseling Project, it's important to us that everyone has access to mental health services. Through our intern program, we are able to make this a reality and offer little to no cost therapy sessions. These are full length, hour long sessions that will help get you or your loved one to a better mental state.

GETTING STARTED
While the idea of therapy may be scary or overwhelming for many people, it can also be a life changing decision. Most people benefit greatly by simply talking to a therapist on a regular basis. With cost out of the equation, there's a lot less to worry about. The first step is deciding to move forward.
The next step is to submit an intake request form at the bottom of this page. After submission, someone from our office will reach out to you within 24 hours to set up your first session. For more information on what to expect during this session, click here.
During your intake session, your therapist will ask you questions on your background, medical history, issues you are currently experiencing, and a number of other topics. These questions will help them to create a treatment plan. This is essentially a roadmap designed specifically for you, to help guide you down the path to better mental health!
After the intake session and your therapist has developed a treatment plan for you, they will work with you to create a schedule going forward. Each session the therapist will work with you to develop goals, discuss coping mechanisms (if applicable), and help you to understand and work through the issues and feelings you are experiencing. As you feel your mental health becoming stronger, sessions may decrease in frequency until you feel like you no longer need them. Whether that happens or not, we are with you every step of the way on this journey!
