Rise Above Counseling Services

I began to pursue my ultimate dream of becoming a therapist in the mental health field after working in public and higher education for nearly a decade. While my counseling career started in group practice settings, it ultimately led to me founding Rise Above LLC in the summer of 2024. I truly believe that you are not defined by your circumstances, but by your ability to rise above them. I share this with my clients who typically are adults (ages 18-65) and are experiencing a variety of symptoms affecting their moods and overall functioning. Common presenting concerns include school/work stress, relational issues, past traumas, and life transitions. As a certified first responder counselor, I also support individuals whose lives are impacted by their work in such roles. With each client, I strive to support their unique journey of personal growth and the development of resilience in their lives. Whether my clients have a difficult time accepting their pasts, living in the present, or embracing what is yet to come, I am here to listen to their stories and take the next steps with them toward whatever their goals may be. I look forward to having the opportunity to work together with you as you gain insight into your current concerns, and empower you to lead a healthier, more productive life.
