Integrating creativity into healing is my passion. My goal as a therapist is to cultivate a safe space where you feel comfortable bringing your own passions and interests into the session. In therapy, I'll help you to heal from your hurts and meet your goals holistically. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and their families to process issues related to trauma, attachment, self-harm/suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety, anger management, divorce, grief, identity development, and life transitions.
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in conjunction with a Person-centered, Experiential, and Trauma-informed approach to assist clients in meeting their goals. Experiential therapy is one tool that I lean heavily into at our East Limestone office. There, I can bring nature, art, and play into sessions to help clients feel grounded and stimulated.
Reaching out for help is a brave and magnificent first step to take towards your healing journey. I am looking forward to coming alongside you, whether it is in person or through telehealth.

DBT Skills Classes
I am conducting Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) skills training classes that are run on a 12 week curriculum. DBT is an evidence-based treatment that has been shown to be effective in treating borderline personality disorder, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, impulse control, substance dependence, and self-harm behavior. The goal of this group is to increase well-being by helping clients learn to manage intense emotions, cope with challenging situations, and improve their relationships. New members must be currently in weekly individual therapy outside of this skills class. This group is 18+ and insurance is accepted!
