Great to meet you!

I consider it such a privilege to walk this journey with you. If the basic day to day life feels like too much- whether it's the stress of balancing children and the many responsibilities, work and home, transitions in relationships or identity, or just the quiet heaviness that won't go away- I am honored to support you.

I have been working with individuals for 20 years. The first 12 were in a church ministry capacity. The last 8 have been more focused in a therapeutic capacity. We were created to be seen, known and understood. That is the basis of my work as a therapist and the foundation for healing.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based practices to help clients better understand unhelpful patterns, calm the internal chaos, and reconnect with themselves.

What you can expect from me

My style is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded. I want to understand you, where you are and what you want to work toward. Whether you're navigating burnout, depression, anxiety, or just a sense that something's missing, I'm here to support you with warmth and evidence-based care. Reach out today and see if I might be a good fit. Together, we explore what’s keeping you stuck and build practical, empowering tools to move toward clarity, balance, and healing.
