At Wishing Well Counseling Center, my ideal client may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or burdened by anxiety, trauma, or life transitions. They’re seeking clarity, balance, and a safe space to heal. I work with all ages and often use play therapy with children to help them express and process emotions. Whether through talk, art, or play, my clients are ready to grow, reconnect with themselves, and make meaningful change.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered Art Therapist, and Certified First Responder Counselor, I offer clients of all ages a safe, supportive space to explore emotions, heal from trauma, and build coping skills. Using creative and evidence-based approaches, I help clients express themselves, gain insight, and make lasting, positive change.
I know how hard it can be to take the first step toward healing, especially when you're feeling overwhelmed or uncertain. You don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to listen, support, and walk with you through whatever you're going through. When you’re ready, I’d be honored to be part of your journey.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide what goals we will work on together. With CBT and mindfulness, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and your experiences, how to challenge those thoughts, and how you can stay more grounded in the present.
