I am a licensed Counselor Trainee as well as a Clinical Mental Health Counseling graduate student at Wright State University in my final semester of the program!

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, stress-related concerns, and emotional challenges that may feel overwhelming or difficult to manage alone. Many clients come to therapy seeking support during life transitions, after traumatic experiences, or while coping with mood and anxiety disorders. As a counselor trainee, I strive to provide a compassionate, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive environment where clients feel heard, safe, and supported as they build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward long-term healing and personal growth.

My favorite quote is from The Little Prince, "the eyes are blind. One must look with the heart." Often in the midst of our pain and struggle we react to circumstances with little or no thought. We allow ourselves to be directed by the world instead of identifying what we need and know in our heart. To identify what we need, know what our heart wants, and have a plan to follow is what therapy is all about. We must work through the pain to identify these things; accept that we deserve them, and develop a plan to achieve them.

I work with young children, preteens, and their families who are navigating behavioral concerns, emotional regulation challenges, trauma, or diagnoses such as ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. Many families come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to best support their child. I provide a consistent, supportive space where children can better understand their emotions, process experiences, and build coping skills and confidence. I also partner closely with caregivers to develop practical strategies that support progress at home, school, and in everyday life.

My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed by expectations, responsibilities, relationships, or stress and has difficulty finding space to care for themselves. They may be navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or professional stress, especially in school or helping professions. They want greater clarity, steadiness, and confidence in themselves and their direction. Together, we explore how relationships, environments, and expectations contribute to stress while building healthier boundaries, practical coping strategies, and a stronger sense of self.

We are dedicated to providing accessible and specialized treatment for individuals who are experiencing difficult emotions and those who have been traumatized.

We specialize helping adults who endured difficult childhoods, or who have encountered very distressing/confusing experiences. Over the course of treatment, we collaborate to boost insight, self-esteem, resiliency, flexibility, the ability to trust, as well as the capacity for humor and creative expression.

Someone with the wrong prescription of glasses will inevitably trip and fall, regardless of how good or bad their vision is, and regardless of how many coffee tables they’ve kicked. I aspire to help clients in finding their exact lens, both providing clarity and decreasing undesirable symptoms–even if that’s only coffee table bruises.
I'm currently only taking Minnesota clients. Although it might seem counterintuitive, having your counseling at your fingertips with someone that doesn't live near you guarantees PURE confidentiality both during and even after the therapeutic relationship ends. You can REALLY tell me everything.
