Welcome. I strive to create a warm, accepting, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to slow down, reflect honestly, and move toward meaningful change. I work with adults, college students, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, stress, panic attacks, OCD, trauma, relationship difficulties, communication struggles, emotional disconnection, infidelity, boundaries, self-esteem, anger, family-of-origin wounds, and major life transitions. My approach is compassionate and relational while also helping clients develop practical tools, deeper self-awareness, and healthier patterns in everyday life.
As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) Candidate working under supervision, I work with individuals struggling with compulsive sexual behaviors and their impact on relationships. For clients who desire it, I thoughtfully integrate Christian faith into the therapy process. I also have experience working with religious OCD/scrupulosity.
Clients often describe me as thoughtful, calm, compassionate, and easy to talk with, while also providing honest support and encouragement toward growth. I believe therapy can be valuable not only during times of crisis, but also during seasons of deeper self-exploration, healing, and transformation. I look forward to hearing from you.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts, feelings, behaviors and body are interconnected. During therapy, I'll help you learn coping skills to manage emotions and other skills to improve other areas of life.
