Life can be overwhelming at times. My mission is to meet individuals where they are, while assisting them in finding peace and enjoyment in their life experience. I enjoy working with teens, teachers, new mothers, couples, women navigating fertility issues or pregnancy loss, couples, and blended families. As a parent and former teacher, I understand development and complexities of the child and teen years.

My goal is to walk beside each client as they learn how to navigate the tougher experiences, setbacks, and uncertainties. Each client I see is treated as unique and treatment is centered around their own personal experiences, preferences, and personal goals. My approach is extremely client-centered and collaborative, where clients have the opportunity to take control of their life and have a say in their treatment.

As your therapist, my goal first and foremost is to ensure that you feel deeply seen, heard, and understood. Many individuals seek therapy because they are suffering in some way, and I am here to remind you that you do not have to go through this chapter alone. From an existential lens, suffering is an innate part of life. However, we can create meaning in this suffering and forge a new path.

I am deeply passionate about providing a safe space for people to explore their stories and working collaboratively with them toward growth and healing. I believe that as human beings we are hurt in relationships with others as well as healed through relationships with others. As a fellow human, I know what it is to hurt, experience loss, and go through immense heartache. My goal in counseling is to humbly walk alongside people in whatever season they are in, and I cater my counseling style for each individual person, couple or family.
