As a Master’s level Mental Health Counselor, my passion is empowering people to accomplish their goals in a mindful and compassionate manner.

Having difficulty finding satisfaction in life without the use of drugs and alcohol? There are many paths to addiction and many paths to recovery.

There is a better version of you waiting to be revealed--let's remove the obscurities so you can thrive.

Dealing with grief and loss? Difficult experiences that need to be discussed to gain insight and freedom? Or maybe you are engaged in a recovery journey and would like to take the next steps of personal growth. As a pre-licensed therapist, I have access to the latest integrative techniques and care for addiction, trauma, and many other presenting concerns.

I have 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I treat individuals, families, and couples. My treatment approach is a blend of DBT, CBT, and ACT. Clients describe me as sensitive, warm, and encouraging and I truly love what I do. Life can be extremely stressful and difficult to navigate at times. I pride myself in taking the time to understand the nature of someone's struggles and making sure his/her goals are addressed. I am also a trained equine assisted psychotherapist. At times, horses can be used to help uncover underlying problems and concerns as well as to teach coping skills.

I help clients who are suffering from anxiety, OCD, hair pulling, social anxiety, phobias, PTSD, and traumatic events. I also provide CBT focused treatment for depression and generalized anxiety. If you are struggling with uncertainty, fear, or coping with a major life event- I'm here to help! I completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety at the University of Pennsylvania and am currently employed as a trauma focused psychologist working with veterans within a VA setting.
