I believe that each individual has a meaning and purpose for how they think, feel, and behave. By taking a holistic approach and meeting you where you're at, I believe that we can find your purpose and be able to make necessary changes to live a better, healthier life. I value building a clinical relationship with my clients and fostering a safe and comfortable environment for you to open up and discover new perspectives about yourself.
I work with athletes and non-athletes and specialize in stress-management, confidence, perfectionism and team dynamics. I have experience as both an athlete and a coach myself, having played as a D3 volleyball player at Carthage College & currently as a high school and club volleyball coach.
I have worked with high school athletes and leadership groups, focusing on team identity, communication, leadership and development and more. I am passionate about helping athletes stay connected to their values and prioritize their mental wellness and performance both on and off the field.
