Thank you for visiting my profile. I am passionate about the work I do with individuals and families within the home, school, and community. My counseling approach is educational and supportive. I aim to help young clients and their families utilize their resources and skills to overcome challenges. My goal in therapy is to educate throughout the process of therapy and offer support to overcome obstacles. I aim to teach long-term coping skills, build insight, motivate self-learning, and encourage independence. Thankfully, there are "tools" available to help us redirect our attention, anxieties, and strengths in appropriate ways.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Art History from Saint Mary’s College in South Bend, Indiana, graduating in May of 2014. In the Fall of 2012, I received training as a victims’ advocate and crisis line operator at the Family Justice Center in South Bend. For the rest of my time as an undergraduate, I continued volunteering for the FJC, focusing on taking crisis calls, yet unaware of the skills I was building in attending to each caller’s concerns. I utilized my training again during grad school to volunteer for Crisis Text Line, where I honed my skills in crisis management and planning.

Give me a break, are you serious? How did I get here? No one understands me, I'm anxious..I'm depressed. How many times have you said these exact words this week? I sure can relate-and if you can, you’re in the right place. Welcome. Self-empowerment, radical acceptance & authentic human connection will be the cornerstone of our work. I utilize a strength-based humanistic approach to guide us...but healing doesn't happen via theory. It lies within you - your hopes, hardships, successes & infinite wisdom. Sometimes we'll laugh. Often, we'll cry. But either way...

I specialize in working with couples on premarital, relationship, and marital issues. I also work with adults with anxiety, depression, anger management, PTSD, addictive behaviors, grief, loss, and bereavement.

My ideal client would be someone who is aware that they need help. They are also prepared and open to doing the necessary work to address their issue. They understand that therapy is a process and not something that can be completed overnight. They understand that their previous methods have failed and are willing to try again with me.

30 years of experience working with children, teens, men, women, and families has taught me that the most important thing in life is relationships.

My help to clients is first and foremost in the form of a positive, affirming relationship, and through that, I have been able to help countless people move toward wholeness and restoration within themselves, and with those that are important to them. I truly look forward to meeting and working with you.

Many people experience points in their lives where they feel stuck, challenged, inadequate, and/or like they are unsure how they can continue on with living. One thing that people have in common is that we desire to be able to live our best lives and up to our fullest potential. When conditions and circumstances in life make this difficult, such as: depression, anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, LGBTQ+ challenges, and trauma, it can feel like there is no clear path to living up to our fullest potential.
