Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist with more than ten years of experience walking alongside people who are carrying heavy things—anxiety that won’t quiet down, trauma that still shows up, stress that feels relentless, and patterns with substances that are hard to break. My approach is warm, grounded, and human. No clinical stiffness, no judgment—just real conversation, compassion, and the occasional well‐timed laugh when it helps you exhale.

As a mom who knows what it’s like to push through exhaustion, hold everything together, and still feel like you’re falling short, I understand how overwhelming life can get. If you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, substance use, or the emotional weight of a major transition, you deserve a space where you can be honest, unfiltered, and fully supported.

In our work together, therapy feels like sitting with someone who genuinely gets it. I show up as a person first—steady, empathetic, and present—while helping you untangle the chaos piece by piece. I’m not here to tell you what you “should” do. I’m here to listen deeply, help you feel understood, and support you in finding practical, meaningful steps that align with your values and the life you want to build.

If you’re looking for a therapist who is authentic, compassionate, and truly invested in your healing and growth, I’d be honored to walk with you through this season.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, and down‐to‐earth. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a real conversation where you feel understood—not judged or talked at. I use a blend of evidence‐based practices, practical tools, and genuine connection to help you make sense of what you’re experiencing. I bring humor when it helps, structure when it’s needed, and always tailor our work to your values, strengths, and goals. My role is to walk alongside you, help you gain clarity, and support you in creating meaningful, sustainable change.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a calm, welcoming space where you can talk openly without pressure. I’ll spend time getting to know you—what’s been weighing on you, what you hope to change, and what you want life to feel like. We’ll explore your goals together and begin shaping a plan that feels realistic and meaningful for you. My focus is on helping you feel understood, supported, and comfortable enough to be yourself from the very beginning.
