I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to create a plan for sustainable growth and change. I operate from a neuro-affirming, trauma-informed lens to support you in creating goals that align with your own vision for growth and healing. I understand how much effort it takes to create space in your life for therapy. I promise to honor that effort by providing a safe, non-judgmental environment where you feel heard, supported, and encouraged. All of my therapeutic approaches can be adapted as needed to properly support the neurodivergent client.
I have specialized experience working with individuals, families, and couples impacted by ADHD, Autism, and PTSD. I use modalities like EFT, ACT, IFS, Polyvagal, and Somatic Experiencing to increase resiliency, improve communication strategies, and help clients manage stress. I am licensed to provide therapy for those located in Illinois and North Carolina.
If you are reading this, it means you have already taken the first step in seeking support. Sometimes that is the hardest part, so take a moment to reflect on the intuition that guided you here. You are valuable and possess the inner strength to keep going. I can help you learn tools and strategies to improve the quality of your life path and find peace.

I am a trained provider for Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). EFT involves tapping on acupressure points to reduce pain and decrease the intensity of symptoms related to anxiety, depression, PTSD, and chronic pain disorders. EFT rapidly releases the stored emotional impact of stressful or traumatic events from the mind-body system by addressing the thoughts, feelings, and sensations that arise.
