Every individual’s journey is unique, and sometimes the hardest step is simply finding a space where you feel truly heard. As a social work student at Capella University with a background in Special Education, I bring a deeply empathetic and patient-centered approach to mental health. I believe that therapy isn't just about managing symptoms, it’s about discovering your inherent strengths and building a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. I utilize an integrative approach tailored to your specific needs. Whether we are navigating a season of life transition or working through deeper patterns, I draw from various modalities.
I use an integrative, client-centered approach tailored to your needs. Whether navigating life transitions or deeper patterns, I draw from CBT to shift stuck thoughts, Solution-Focused Therapy to build on goals & wins, Motivational Interviewing to strengthen change, Gestalt for present-moment awareness, & crisis intervention for support in overwhelming times
My experience in the classroom has taught me that growth happens at different speeds for everyone. I am passionate about creating a non-judgmental environment where you can explore your challenges safely. When I’m not in the office, you can find me recharging on a run, spending quality time with family, or diving into a new book.
