I believe in empowering my clients to recognize their strengths and to find healing. I seek to create safe spaces for clients to feel accepted and understood. My experience in various clinical mental health settings has allowed me the honor to work with people from all walks of life and to learn from them. I seek to continually educate myself on the impact I have in society as an educated white woman with privilege. I am a lifelong learner searching for ways to use my power and privilege as a social worker to advocate for others and fight for justice on behalf of those marginalized by society. I am here to listen and learn from you.

Being human did not come with a set of instructions, but perhaps it should have. So often, humans find themselves in the mess of suffering, pain, and social programming that gets in the way of being our authentic selves. I, myself, am human first, therapist second (& ya know... 1000 things in between). I see therapy as a way to recenter and come back into YOUR own knowing. Therapy is the conscious participation in your own evolution. And I am here to assist you on your journey to evolve into the human you want to be.

I support clients navigating grief, relationship challenges, and those seeking neurodiversity-affirming support. Those who have experienced pain, disappointment, and distress from experiences in faith communities are especially drawn to my work. It is also important to acknowledge how isolating it can be to pause, deconstruct, or reconsider long-held beliefs or spiritual practices that once held a lot of hope and meaning. Or, to simply explore how embracing your full humanity and identity can be celebrated after experiences of being shamed for those aspects of you.

As a clinician who is part of the Kelle DeBruin Counseling team, I have a passion for working with people who think complexly about the world around them and want to "dive deeper" on their journey. Those who contemplate life’s big questions: who am I? What do I want? What is my purpose here? Why did I have to go through that and what does it mean? Together we will explore yourself and your values, and any barriers that prevent you from creating the life you want to live, either yourself or in your relationships.

If you have been trying to "get it together" with your relationship with your body, all-consuming anxiety, feeling like you are enough, or chasing life's impossible expectations - you have landed in the right place. My clients are often teens (14+), young adults, and midlife adults who are navigating life challenges related to anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, identity, grief, body image, disordered eating concerns and/or are a part of the lgbtqia+ community. I firmly believe we can't shame ourselves into meaningful change. That's why my approach to therapy utilizes compassion to connect you to your inner wisdom and build self trust.

As a Recovery Coach my aim is to meet you where you are, and to let you know that wherever you are is normal. I am able to engage clients outside the confines of traditional clinical practice, providing support where there might currently be gaps in your care. This can look like: Meeting in the community—whether you need support going to a recovery meeting or you want encouragement while eating a meal. Sharing my own experiences with mental health, sobriety, and eating disorder recovery. Long and short-term goal setting, and hands-on support taking steps to achieve those goals.

I get it - seeking support isn't always easy. It requires a great deal of courage. Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience in our lives. I help people work through the unrelenting cycle of stress, worry, and shame that comes with anxiety and trauma. Depression can feel like a weight that you're always carrying. Through counseling and treatment, you can recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life. Taking a mind-body approach to your care, you can learn the tools that help you move through these issues.
