Hello! I work primarily with adults and embrace a person-centered therapeutic style. I prefer it because I believe that individuals are the best experts on their experiences, and that as a therapist, I shouldn’t judge them but instead partner with them during their healing journey. I value empathy, vulnerability, "thinking outside of the box", and self-acceptance. Forgot what you were going to say in the middle of your sentence? You won't get any judgment from me. I support clients in listening to their own wisdom, exploring their life stories, and building on big and small victories alike. I love being a cheerleader!
I have experience supporting clients with trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, goal-setting and organization, and mindfulness, and have a professional focus of supporting survivors of religious trauma. As someone with lived experience in that arena, I strive to bring visibility and support to our population. You're not alone.
I am passionate about meeting people where they are at, whatever that looks like, and approaching each challenge with creativity, evidence-based training, compassion, and a good sense of humor. Please consider booking a session to see if we are a good fit - I look forward to hearing from you!

I come to the therapy world after over 20 years of visual merchandising and training work, so I love supporting others and also focusing on the details. I have almost completed the prerequisites for both my Counseling and Art Therapist licenses, and love individual and group work!

I often use Person-Centered Therapy, as well as Art Therapy, in my practice. With Person-Centered therapy, I feel that you are the expert of your own experience, and I will ally with you on your journey - continuing to offer tools to support you! And you don't need to be an artist to utilize Art Therapy - I like to think of it as "getting out of your head and into your hands"!
