It is important as women and mothers we take the steps to care for ourselves, as we are being pulled in many directions throughout the day. As a parent, I was young, unprepared, and unsupported in challenges that I faced. This has led to my interest in supporting women and parents in their journey. I strive to empower all women to recognize the expectations that society places are not all attainable. You cannot be all of the things, all of the time, and it is okay to slow down and take care of you. I also specialize in working with teens and young adults who are struggling with pieces in life and transitioning to adulthood.

I am passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves and am continually learning how to best support my clients.

A safe, authentic relationship is key for therapy to work, and I prioritize compassion and nonjudgmental curiosity. Together, we can find out what matters most to you and how to get there.
