Are you feeling down, burdened, or uncertain about your place in life? I understand those emotions deeply: the constant comparison, the stress, and the endless scrolling on social media to escape. It can feel like a relentless cycle. But you don't have to endure it any longer. Together, we can explore techniques to greatly diminish these feelings. I've helped people manage anxiety, depression, and self-comparison, guiding them towards a life filled with more peace, contentment, and a sense of control.

Are you easily overwhelmed or overstimulated by things others seem to handle with ease? Do you feel different from others? Easily misunderstood? Are relationships a struggle? Do you feel like you don't know who you are or what you want in life? If any of these resonate, you’ve come to the right place! I support and find a special connection with clients experiencing these very same things. Additionally, I value working with clients who are experiencing OCD, trauma manifestations, anxiety and depression, anger issues, life transitions, grief, suicidal ideation, low self-esteem, religious or faith-related challenges, and more.

Hello! Thank you for visiting with me! Fostering “next steps” in all areas of life defines my approach to counseling. My experience with childhood loss, a pervasive family history of depression and anxiety, and a recent diagnosis of ADHD have created opportunities to learn and grow personally and professionally. A Christian foundation grounds my decisions personally and professionally. I believe God works powerfully through relationships and promises to guide us.
