Do you feel overwhelmed by life’s stressors, or are you struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, or low self-esteem? You are not alone—and seeking help is a courageous first step. I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, where you are the expert on your life and I am here to guide, empower, and support you through the process of change. If you’re ready to do the work, I’m ready to walk alongside you. With over seven years of experience in the counseling field, I’ve worked in a variety of settings including outpatient mental health and substance use treatment, as well as inpatient and residential programs.
I’ve supported adult men and women through many stages of recovery, healing, and personal growth. I help clients build healthier thought patterns, manage difficult emotions, and improve both self-awareness and communication in relationships. My approach supports individuals in navigating life’s challenges, fostering personal growth, and developing effect
I offer a compassionate and collaborative therapeutic space where your concerns are heard with empathy and respect. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I work with clients to identify patterns, set meaningful goals, and create lasting change. At A Simple Conversation, LLC, healing begins with one honest conversation at a time.
