I hope to offer a safe and compassionate space, provide insights and resources for self discovery, and ultimately, empower you to live the life you want to live!.
I recognize that telling our stories is not always easy, and I am honored to walk alongside those who choose to share their stories with me for a time. I particularly enjoy working with young adults in seasons of self-discovery or life transitions, and specialize in providing therapy to 17-30 year olds. Young adulthood is full of unique, and often overwhelming questions like “Who do I really want to be? How do I create the life I want for myself? Will I succeed? Where do I start?” I will offer support as we explore these questions and develop the vision, skills, and confidence to move forward.

Reaching out for mental health supports can be overwhelming, but I want my clients to know they can expect a nonjudgmental listening ear with positive feedback from a person who has seen various walks of life and enjoys walking the journey to recovery with you.
I understand that trauma can be a barrier to living a full life. I also understand that anxiety and depression can be completely debilitating. My goal in private practice is to help you learn about your deepest self, develop healthy coping skills, become your best self advocate, and achieve the highest quality of life through cognitive behavioral and solution focused therapy. If you are in need of specific resources or community services, I walk alongside my clients to identify needs and coordinate services. I enjoy working with clients and professionals at all stages of mental health wellness.

Waitlist for new clients
I am passionate about the connection between the mind and the body, shifting into a perspective of gratitude, mindfulness based methods, and coaching strategies.
We all go through valleys and peaks in our lives. Sometimes the only way to get out of a deep pit is through grasping the hand that is there to help you. I have seen personally what can happen with the help of someone who offers unconditional support and encouragement, moving one out of the darkness and into the light. I am particularly passionate about holistic health and wellness and believe we are all on a journey toward better health. In addition to my Master's Degree in Social Work, I have completed a certificate through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and enjoy bringing all areas of wellness in greater focus.

NOW is the time to listen to self and explore how life can be more balanced full of joy.
I guide professional women who feel like they have gotten lost in obligations and anxiety somewhere along the way; shift from perfectionism and "shoulds" to being the CEO of their mental, spiritual, and physical health (without needing years of therapy). My clients tell me they want balance and freedom in their full lives - and they truly want to transform from overthinking and over-functioning to really enjoying their lives. They simply want to take better care of themselves, and either their mind or body is getting louder - in physical pain, anxiety, restlessness, stress response, emotional eating (to name a few).

I counsel with couples, adults, and adolescents in all stages and seasons of life.
I believe we all desire to live freely, love fully, be our real, true selves, and become our best selves. I want that for myself, and I want that you. But this earth we inhabit is a broken place, and life is messy and complicated. Relationships can be tricky too. Understanding and managing our own emotions, while trying to live with, and care for others and their stuff, often seems like an impossible endeavor. We all struggle with something or someone sometime, and there is no good reason to face yours alone. Life cannot be done on our own - it is too complex. We need others, others need us, and we all need GOD.

I once heard that in order to live a fulfilling life you need to live it fully everyday. Living fully can look different from day to day. Some days living fully may bring joy, peace, excitement, & love as you form new relationships, pursue your passions, & discover more about yourself. Yet other days living fully may bring frustration, sorrow, fear, and pain as you face loss, trauma, and uncertainty. In either of these cases, living fully is done in relationship and living alongside another can bring healing beyond belief. I strive to be that ally, to walk alongside others as they experience the joys & challenges of living fully.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
