Great to meet you!

I’m a licensed professional counselor. My undergraduate studies in Speech and Hearing Sciences laid the foundation for my interest in communication. I later earned my graduate degree in Art Therapy, which continues to shape my experiential, creative, and relational approach to counseling. In my spare time, you'll find me hanging out with my 250 lb goat and his kids.

My approach to therapy

My work integrates EMDR, IFS, Emotion‐Focused, and Compassion‐Focused therapy. My approach is feminist‐informed and aims at supporting nervous‐system regulation, clarity, and values‐aligned decision‐making.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we explore what feels heavy, what brought you in, and what you hope will shift. I help you slow down, regulate, and identify values that guide next steps. Expect warmth, curiosity, and a steady space to begin sorting through what’s overwhelming.
