I'm a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in child, adolescent, and family mental health. I have a passion for developing strategies that address immediate needs while fostering long-term resilience and well-being in the communities I serve. With over thirteen years of experience, I've dedicated my career to making a difference in the lives of those I encounter.

Life stressors and trauma can impact our lives in unexpected ways and reaching out for support takes courage. I value collaborating with individuals to curate space for their healing journey. As a therapist, I am committed to establishing an environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I practice from a trauma informed, relational, and anti-oppressive perspective and believe that each person's journey is unique and deserving of respect. My approach is rooted in an appreciation for the diverse backgrounds and identities that each person brings to the therapeutic relationship.

I believe that walking alongside my clients as they begin their journey of healing is both an honor and a privilege. I strive to provide a safe and non-judgemental place for my clients while acknowledging their individual barriers and circumstances. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are and seeing clients reach their full potential. I am able to provide services for Individuals, Couples, and Pre-Marital Couples.

Asking for help is sometimes difficult, and also powerful. Daily struggles with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, intrusive thoughts can become overwhelming. Complex trauma, substance use, eating disorders, unhealthy relationships, are among a few that can also keep us from our authentic self. In order to survive through all of this and keep going, it is common to adapt in ways that end up no longer working. We need help. That help comes from recognizing the gifts we have in ourselves and getting the gifts of others. My gift is to help others with aligning the head and the heart while healing to recognize authentic self.

I work to identify the strengths of my client and then utilize these as we collaborate, accomplishing the client's life goals, navigating stressors and bringing balance and hope to the client's life. Are you tired of sabotaging your success? Do you wish you could get a grip on your anxiety? Why am I so angry all of the time? Other people can quit, why can't I? Will I ever be enough? I believe in creating a safe space of healing, hope and refuge where you can achieve your goals and desires for your life.

Are you having thoughts and feelings that just don’t make sense? Do you ever feel really upset and can’t figure out why? Does it seem like finding happiness is harder for you than for others? You’re definitely not alone in this. At A Balanced Therapy, we’re all about helping you feel better. We listen, really listen, to what you’re going through and help you see things in a new way. We’ll work together to help you find your happy place, even when it seems really hard to get there. Your journey to feeling good about life starts with just one step. Your journey to joy starts with a single, brave step. Let’s take that step together.

If you tell yourself: “I can’t keep living like this,” we'll be a good fit. I specialize in individuals, couples, and families who've been impacted by suicidal thoughts and related concerns, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and identity-related stress (gender, sexual orientation, ethnic/racial). These people are cycle-breakers who want to change old family patterns; stonecatchers who try to protect others from mistreatment because they know how it feels; or those who are simply tired of feeling “just ok.” Ultimately I blend the nerdy science of psychology with humility and humor to support you in building a more meaningful life.

There is a stigma that seeking counseling is weak or only for those who are going through “really hard things” - both of those statements are simply not true. Taking time to focus on who you are and pouring into your mental health is a great way to love yourself. With that being said, it takes a great amount of vulnerability, humility, courage, and hope to open up to someone about things you may have never talked to anyone about before. My desire as a counselor is to build trust and help you feel safe and comfortable as we work together.

Hi! I'm on a quest to help you be happier, healthier, and more connected to yourself and those around you. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or "like an outsider," or at odds with people in your life, I am here to provide support. You may also live in a rural area or identify as "alternative" in some way, adding to the difficulty of accessing competent care.

Are you struggling with either personal or relationship difficulties? If so, I would like to help. When combined with hard work, professional counseling can help you overcome almost any problem.

Anxiety and depression can make us feel stuck, but there is hope. Stress feels overwhelming, but this too shall pass. Relationship challenges can feel like the end of the world, but you can overcome. I want to help you get better and reclaim your strength. Often people are intimidated by the thought of going to see a therapist. Therapy doesn’t have to be painful, it is a process to having a better understanding of yourself.
