I obtained my Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Adler University.
I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—from themselves, from others, and the world around them. Many are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting challenges, relationship stress, or big life transitions. Others are new moms, caregivers, or survivors trying to make sense of where they've been and where they're headed. Using a trauma-informed, narrative lens, I help clients explore patterns, process pain, and uncover stories that reflect their strength, values, and identity. My goal is to offer a space where you feel seen and supported as you move toward healing and growth.
