Sometimes life can feel like trying to climb Mount Everest without any supplies. As a fellow traveler of life, I have experienced steep climbs, low valleys, feeling disconnected, and at times hopeless. The experiences of my journey have given me an authentic wisdom to navigate the unfamiliar or challenging terrain with you. Together, we can do hard things and tread across the contours of life. My areas of focus are: trauma, personal/mental health challenges while parenting/raising children, women's mental health, peri/postpartum anxiety/depression, substance use, identity development, geriatric, life transitions, and end of life.

Feeling lost, or maybe you’re struggling with a big life change? No one is too far gone or “broken.” My goal is to help you to finish your past, be present for today, and make progress forward into your tomorrows. I enjoy the process of walking alongside my clients’ unique experiences when they feel that they may be at their lowest point. I strive to provide a positive and encouraging space for my clients to become aware of the issues in their paths, while also helping them to uncover the hidden tools that they have access to. One process I process I love to implement is Name it-Claim it-Tame it-Change it.

I firmly believe in meeting the client in where they are in their life’s journey, creating a place free of judgment or barriers. I believe everyone has the chance for personal growth and can benefit from therapy. The mind can create cognitive distortions, inaccurate thoughts that produce negative emotions. My belief is that challenging those negative thoughts at their onset is the best line of defense to keep you from reinforcing the negative thought pattern.

I believe that all people have an innate ability to heal and grow under the right conditions. I practice from a person-centered foundation while utilizing CBT interventions in session to enact self- acceptance and provide clients the tools needed for change. I strive to make conversations about mental health and self-care relatable, safe, fun, and empowering. I believe it is a privilege to gently and genuinely hold space for and guide clients through some of the most significant, or potentially difficult, experiences of their lives while collaboratively working towards self-growth and healing.

In life, we typically feel happiest when things are going exactly as we expect. Unfortunately, life and relationships rarely play out this way; leaving us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and powerless to meet our everyday challenges. I enjoy working with adults, couples, and adolescents who want to explore how to get unstuck and move forward. I have worked closely with children and adults struggling through various crises, including: grief, ADHD, interpersonal relationships, sexuality, identity, regulating emotions, self harm, trauma, and a wide array of other challenges.
